 You're right...I've got no more info about this bird than what is avail-
able in the press if you look for it. But I'm trying to get some other
people involved and maybe, just maybe, we can learn something new.
I do think it is worth the effort....Jesus, this thing will be the 
SR71 of the next two decades!! Imagine....mach 8, and world circling
range!

best plan: lurk on sci.aero, rec.aviation.military, sci.military, and the
skunk-works mailing list... 'Aurora' has been popping up for years now... 
it is starting to get old...

Eris! If it exists!

That's one thing that bothers me, everyone seems to think it does exist.
Won't you be a bit disappointed if it doesn't? Yes, I think the govt. is
hiding something, more than one project sure. But the assumption seems to
be that it is a Mach 6+ air-breathing manned recon aircraft. Maybe it isn't.
Maybe there is a high speed propulsion testbed. A low-speed stealth
penetrator. Drones, two-stage vehicles. (the 'B-70 like' sighting) Don't
put blinders on, it makes it harder to spot the truth when/if we get a
glimpse.
