>The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) would like to provide
>more information about our scramjet engine flight test that used the
>HyShot flight experiment system at the Woomera range in Australia at
>11:40 a.m. on March 30, 2006 (Japan Standard Time, JST.) The actual
>flight test operations were commissioned to the University of
>Queensland (UQ) in Australia.
>
>The UQ informed JAXA that the highest altitude reached by the rocket
>was about 290 km, which is approximately 10% lower than the scheduled
>320 km, according to the telemetry data sent from the HyShot.
>
>We will continue to analyze the telemetry data to find out the impact
>of the deviated rocket flight on the scramjet engine. We will inform
>you of the results as soon as we receive them.
