The Kitten Space Vehicle is a single stage small sub orbital space craft with 3 ceramic engines and a kit space craft you can build and operate. It burns Liquid Propane and Liquid Oxygen as propellants and can lift up to 3 people out to 236 kilometers altitude.
It is a composite craft with aluminum skin coated with a ceramic. It flies like a small plane. Turn around is just refueling and plug ins for oxygen and CO2 scrubbers etc.
