The new Vulcan rocket, which got its name through a poll that attracted more than a million votes, incorporates new engines, a reuse approach that features a mid-air recovery and a new upper stage aimed at enabling complex on-orbit operations. "[Vulcan is] going to take the best parts of Delta and Atlas and combine them with new and advanced technology to provide a rocket that is not just as reliable and certain as Atlas has been, but also much more powerful, with higher performance, greater flexibility and [is] significantly more affordable," Tory Bruno, United Launch Alliance CEO, said in a press conference held Monday (April 13) at the Space Symposium in Colorado.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> <center><a href="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-041315a-vulcan-rocket-ula-launch.html" target="AirLock"><img src="http://www.collectspace.com/images/news-041315a-lg.jpg" width="400" height="265" border="0"></a></center>
