Within the last year, there has been a growing interest in technology which would support the development of vehicles which can maneuver in the atmosphere while returning from orbit and vehicles which can fly in the atmosphere at hypersonic speeds for sustained periods of time. This rebirth of interest in hypersonics is partly a result of a developing awareness of the potential benefits which can be derived from vehicles with capability to operate between the limits of existing aircraft and spacecraft. Examples of the types of maneuvers which are projected for this new class of vehicles are presented. Challenges provided by the considered maneuvers are summarized, taking into account a synergetic or atmospheric plane change. The plane change maneuver will require a Thermal Protection System (TPS). Attention is given to the definition of a Shuttle launched entry research vehicle experiment. Details regarding the synergetic plane change are considered along with the maneuvering entry, vehicle heating, and experiments and instrumentation.
