That is a good question, I know that the one they tested in the 70's was
named "Enterprise". It never went into outer space, it was only piggybacked
on a 747 and let loose to test its descent and landing capabilities. I have
to imagine that the original project was just some alpha-numeric designation,
anyone know?
