The M2-F2 lifting body arrives by truck at the Flight Research Center. A year would pass before it would make its first flight. After being horribly damaged in a crash landing, it was modified and renamed the "M2-F3."This is one vehicle part of the lifting-body program which paved the way for unpowered lifting body landing, the STS or more commonly known as the Space Shuttle.
