One of the other threads is discussing the need for a West Coast landing for Orion (due to, essentially, the physics of re-entry).<br /><br />One of the issue being brought up in the expense of returning a re-useable Orion to KSC for processing and launch.<br /><br />Has the idea of a Vandenburg launch site been tossed about? It's closer to Edwards and, hence, allows for the disposal of the service module into the deeps of the Pacific.<br /><br />Thoughts?
