Jets -

one of the more recent tests is to test the new Hypersonic Scram Jet
NASA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFHbjpc_dJ4

this type of jet has no moving parts, and is basicly working like can of hair spray on fire, lol
max speed is estimated between Mach 12 to 24,
"By way of contrast, the fastest conventional air-breathing, manned vehicles, such as the U.S. Air Force SR-71, achieve approximately Mach 3.4 and rockets from the Apollo Program achieved Mach 30+." ~wikipedia
