What if the future of space travel were to look less like Space-X's rocket-based Starship and more like NASA's "Hyper-X," the hypersonic jet plane that, 20 years ago this year, flew faster than any ...

-NASA’s X-43A was a black, wedge-shaped test vehicle that did something once thought impossible: it proved an air-breathing scramjet could fly at hypersonic speeds, reaching Mach 7 and then Mach 9.6 ...

Imagine an aircraft streaking across the sky at over Mach 12, which is twelve times the speed of sound! Moreover, it is powered not by conventional jet fuel but by hydrogen fuel, meaning that it ...

The US Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has launched an initiative, dubbed Robust Scramjet, to expand the scale and operability of supersonic combustion ramjets (scramjets) in the run-up to the ...
