Nigel: thank you for bringing this news to our attention. How in the world did you find this??? I particularly like this following excerpt and wonder how much this will be worth to Orbi!

. Each Hyper-X vehicle will ride on the first stage of an
Orbital Sciences Corp., Dulles, VA, booster rocket, which will be
launched by the Dryden B-52. For each flight, the booster will
accelerate the Hyper-X research vehicle to the test conditions
(Mach 5, 7 or 10) at approximately 100,000 feet. There, it will
separate from the booster and fly under its own power andpreprogrammed control.
