There are other information but just seeing them as a unit is pretty amazing. I think what is cool just to look at the "under development" units. Tell me that doesnt worry ya?!
Kallamis sent in this note about the Skylon I thought I would share.

- Skylon is actually a British concept for a single stage re-usable pilot-less space plane. Hydrogen powered and designed to take off from a regular runway. Here's the link to the wiki article.

Skylon huh? Interesting name and images pop up with that one. Starting with the concept of Skynet, and a Pylon being fused into one thing would be terrifying indeed.
Just LOOKING at it one has to wonder what the hell is going on with this nightmare of a ship! It dwarfs everything on the page! It even gives the ISS a run and if we look at just the modules and not all the solar cells, it DOES. That was the main reason for putting it up....just the impact of something of that size! and Secret to boot!
