Cool X-planes

This site has tons of planes that go mach sppeds. One can go to 25 mach! Found it when I looked up the Boeing X-33from Dan Brown's Angels and Demons!

Unfortunately, the X-37 hasnt yet been flight tested (its slated for 2006). NASA did fund Boeings project tho at a cost of $301million in 2002. So you could say that the Mach 25 vehicle is still a dream (apart from space flight, of course)

Wasn't NASA or some company going to do commercial flights into space open to the public on these kind of planes?

Has this space plane project been dropped? all infomation seems to of stopped round 2001-2002, maybe after the shuttle accident in 2003 the project was dropped, would be a shame.

The X-37 program was transferred from NASA to DARPA on September 13, 2004, and the X-37A vehicle for atmospheric drop tests (called the Approach and Landing Test Vehicle, or ALTV) carried out several captive flights aboard the Scaled Composites White Knight One in 2005 before conducting its first free flight on April 7, 2006. The military X-37 version, the X-37B, made its first launch in April 2010 and has conducted a total of six orbital flights, all of them using the Atlas V except for OTV-5.
