bighairymike: In your face is rooted in observing the schizophrenic irony of the US Government investing heavily in a massive carbon producing supersonic passenger jet AND at the same time investing heavily to reduce planet destroying CO2, the primary ambassador of which is John Kerry.

'The design concepts and technology roadmaps are really important to have in our hands when the companies are finished,' said Mary Jo Long-Davis, manager of NASA's Hypersonic Technology Project. 'We are also collectively conscious of the need to account for safety, efficiency, economic, and societal considerations. It's important to innovate responsibly so we return benefits to travelers and do no harm to the environment.'
