That plane is the ****! I fell in love with it when I saw a Discovery channel special on it...that thing is just awsome!
The XB-70 was the world's largest experimental aircraft. Capable of flight at speeds of three times the speed of sound (2,000 miles per hour) at altitudes of 70,000 feet, the XB-70 was used to collect in-flight information for use in the design of future supersonic aircraft, military and civilian.
Pictures taken from this VERY informative XB70 webpage:
