NASAs High Speed Research Program is working with industry to identify and address critical technological challenges that must be overcome to initiate commercial development of practical supersonic transport. In independent assessment of the programs planning and progress. Areas of particular interest include the ability of technologies under development to meet program goals related to noise, emissions, service life, weight, range, and payload. The report of the High Speed Research Committee concludes that the High Speed Research Program is well organized and has made substantial progress in resolving many of the foundational questions regarding the technical feasibility of producing an economically viable, environmentally acceptable supersonic transport.
