NASA reportedly seeking to return SR-71 Blackbird to service

Reports claim NASA is working to bring the SR-71 Blackbird, the fastest plane ever built, out of retirement, without explaining its motives. The Cold War-era spy plane was retired in the late 1990s, and news that the agency might want it flying again has sparked speculation about secret research programs, hypersonic testing, or classified missions.

Why now: The secrecy around NASA's reported interest in a legendary retired aircraft invites speculation about classified or cutting-edge aerospace work.
