Difference between Air launch and Reusable launch system

Air launch vs. Reusable launch system

Air launching is the practice of releasing a rocket, missile, parasite aircraft or other aircraft payload from a mother ship or launch aircraft. A reusable launch system (RLS, or reusable launch vehicle, RLV) is a space launch system intended to allow for recovery of all or part of the system for later reuse.

Similarities between Air launch and Reusable launch system

Air launch and Reusable launch system have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Ansari X Prize, Composite aircraft, North American X-15, Pegasus (rocket), Scaled Composites, Scaled Composites White Knight, SpaceShipOne, SpaceShipTwo, Virgin Galactic.

Ansari X Prize

The Ansari X Prize was a space competition in which the X Prize Foundation offered a US$10,000,000 prize for the first non-government organization to launch a reusable manned spacecraft into space twice within two weeks.
