NASA consideration of a "mixed fleet" to augment Shuttle missions by using an unmanned vehicle developed from recoverable shuttle components led to issuance in September by MSFC of a request for proposals asking for definition of such a vehicle, to be called SRB-X. Boeing Aerospace and Martin Marietta Aerospace were the two contractors responding. MSFC had management responsibility for the SRB-X study because it had been in charge of Shuttle propulsion and was the lead center for design, development, and testing of all NASA propulsion systems.
