A hypersonic aircraft is being developed by a Texas-based company called Venus Aerospace. They have already created a functional engine for the project, and based on preliminary tests, they expect the plane to achieve speeds of up to 7,402.9 km/h. This would make it capable of flying at six times the speed of sound and three times faster than the famed Concorde supersonic airliner. With this speed, a journey from London to New York could be completed in under an hour.

Venus Aerospace, a US-based company, has been pursuing a groundbreaking concept: the development of an aircraft capable of reaching nine times the speed of sound. This impressive feat would allow passengers to travel anywhere in the world within just 60 minutes. Although news about the company’s progress has been relatively scarce since the summer of 2022, recent reports indicate that important strides have been made towards turning this ambitious idea into a reality. With a target launch date of 2030, Venus Aerospace is hard at work refining their technology.
