 This program is an exciting visionary program that will greatly expand the boundaries of air breathing flight. We'll be flying at speeds and altitudes that an air breathing airplane has never flown before. The potential for both atmospheric flight using future aircraft, it could fly five to eight times the speed of sound and even more importantly could change the way we access space, having launch vehicles that would use air breathing propulsion for the first part of the flight, could actually go to orbit and very much more payload and significantly reduce costs than anything we even know of today. We have a lot of wind tunnel data, a lot of analysis, but the one thing we don't have is flight. It's time to go out and fly and we need to do that now while we still have the talent and the skills available to do it.
