But how do you land this thing?
NASA successfully launched their scramjet craft and claim it flew at a record 5000mph. The craft did not have a pilot and was boosted to 3500mph by a rocket. The craft flew for 7 minutes under its own steam before going into glide mode, although it is unclear from this description if they bothered landing this craft.
The article also mentions that cuts to program loom. So while there maybe a third scramjet craft to be tested later this year, it is predicted it will be decades before this technology can be applied commercially. And to think the Wright Brothers made powered flight look so simple.
