Model of a hypersonic aircraft from the 1960s that still holds the world speed record for the fastest manned aircraft.
It was also the first aircraft to reach an altitude considered the boundary between Earth's atmosphere and space.
The lessons learned during the X-15's development and test flights were significant for the Apollo program and aerospace research.
This reissue features the X-15A-2 as it appeared before its final flight, when W. J. "Pete" Knight achieved the world speed record.
