NASA is known for its triumphs, but for every Moon landing, there are dozens of incredible missions that were scrapped, cancelled, or hidden away. This video uncovers 10 Abandoned NASA Projects that could have changed the future of space travel.

We explore the X-20 Dyna-Soar, a 1960s spaceplane that looked like a futuristic fighter jet, and Project Orion, the insane plan to propel a spaceship using nuclear bomb detonations. We discuss the Constellation Program, the massive moon-to-Mars initiative cancelled in 2010, and Project Prometheus, which aimed to use nuclear reactors for deep space exploration. Finally, we look at the VentureStar (X-33), the single-stage-to-orbit spacecraft meant to replace the Space Shuttle before it was abandoned due to technical failures.
