The next flying wing

[Michael Stora]

Traveling in one direction, they flying wing is optimized for subsonic speed, take off, and landing, rotate 90 degrees and it is optimized for low draw supersonic flight without sonic booms. Passengers will only experience around 0.1G centripetal force during the transition from straight to sideways flight.

If the money was awarded to a Florida State University engineer, why is it carrying University of Miami logos?

Edit:
Ahhh, because the article says FSU, but the internal link is actually U of M.
