The lifting body program wasn't just about test flights. It provided invaluable data on high-speed aerodynamics, heat shielding, and pilot control during re-entry. This knowledge base directly influenced the design of the Space Shuttle, enabling it to return safely from space like a giant glider.

The lifting bodies themselves are now museum exhibits, standing as testaments to human ingenuity and the tireless pursuit of space exploration.
