The flight test for Boeing’s experimental X-51A WaveRider plane, which travels five times faster than the speed of sound, failed, according to the U.S. Air Force. This is the third failure for the ...
For years, wide-speed-range waveriders that can balance both high-speed and low-speed flight states have attracted significant attention in aerospace ...
A Silver Surfer-style, air-breathing engine defied naysayers with its triumphant recent test reaching Mach 5 -- that’s an astonishing mile per second, or nearly 4,000 miles per hour-- smashing its own ...
LOS ANGELES — Since test pilot Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier in 1947, engineers and scientists have dreamed of ever-faster aircraft. Now, they face one of their toughest challenges yet: ...
It was fourth time lucky for Boeing’s X-51A Waverider, as it blasted into the history books on Monday. The fourth test of the hypersonic drone achieved the longest scramjet-powered hypersonic flight ...
Boeing's X-51A WaveRider — a jet-fueled, air-breathing hypersonic rocket developed for the U.S. Air Force — went hypersonic during a recent test off the Southern California coast, flying at more than ...
Why is Christian Science in our name? Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that. The Church publishes the Monitor ...
Hypersonic waverider vehicles represent a frontier in aerospace engineering, merging innovative design geometries with advanced propulsion concepts to achieve superior aerodynamic efficiency at ...
