Paper reviews recent developments in technology of hypersonic flight. Notes renewed interest including proposals for commercial hypersonic transport and atmospheric-braking orbital-transfer vehicles. Considers flight environments in which such aircraft operate, fluid-dynamic and chemical phenomena of hypersonic flight, computational challenges to designers and developers of aircraft and power-plants, and difficulties of validating computer models of hypersonic phenomena.
