Out of scope

I am removing this sentence because I believe it to be out of scope of this page:

NASA's Orion program seeks to develop a reusable crew module for use in lunar and interplanetary missions.^[1]

Orion would be a reusable spacecraft, but not a space vehicle as defined in this article. In order for that to be true, the launch vehicle would also have to be 100% reusable (i.e., space vehicle = launch vehicle + spacecraft). JustinTime55 (talk) 16:32, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
