Miniseries Episode 4 - The Making of Hypersonic Flight Testing

How the world's largest aircraft, Stratolaunch Roc, is paving the way for repeatable hypersonic testing.

Welcome to the final part of our bonus podcast miniseries on the making of Behind the Wings PBS Season 6! 

In this episode, Director Cray Novick and Host Tracy LaTourrette discuss behind-the-scenes stories while filming with Stratolaunch at the Mojave Air and Space Port. Join us as we talk about the history of hypersonics, building the Stratolaunch Roc, the Talon-A test vehicle, the Hadley rocket engine, and flying this twin-fuselage aircraft. This one is going to be cool!

Check out the new season on PBS or at our YouTube channel. We can't wait to show you what we've been working on!

Our regularly scheduled podcast series will return on 12/2/24 with an interview with Madison Marsh, the first active-duty Air Force Officer to be crowned Ms. America. Thanks for joining us!
