This Thanksgiving, while millions of Americans pack airports, HELLO FUTURE looks at how well travel in the skies of tomorrow. Kevin Cirilli sits down with Dr. Kurt Barnhart, executive director of Kansas States Applied Aviation Research Center and one of the nations leading experts on aerospace systems, to talk about the next era of air travel hypersonic and supersonic flight. From planes that could cross the Atlantic in under two hours to engines designed to slice through the stratosphere at five times the speed of sound, Kevin and Dr. Barnhart explore how the race for faster, cleaner, and more efficient travel could change everything from family holidays to global trade. Why it matters: hypersonic flight isnt just for the military it could one day redefine what it means to fly home for the holidays.
