There has been some speculation that the oft rumored "Aurora" is really
a revamped, updated SR-71 design with a hybrid jet/scram jet engine
capable of extra-atmosphere flight.


It's also been rumored that the Aurora was canceled in the '90s, due to
the expense.


Man, that has got to be a ride and a half.
