The SCRAMjet was a type of engine that could "suck" the Hydrogen & Oxygen from the air to make a fuel source. This mean it could last forever.
Scramjet (supersonic combustion ramjet) and ramjet engines are both types of air-breathing engines, but they operate at different speeds. Ramjets function efficiently at subsonic to low supersonic speeds, using the forward motion of the vehicle to compress incoming air before combustion. In contrast, scramjets are designed for supersonic speeds, allowing combustion to occur while the airflow remains supersonic, which enables them to operate at much higher speeds, typically above Mach 5. This fundamental difference in airflow and combustion speed makes scramjets suitable for hypersonic flight applications.
Invented is the past participle of the verb invent. verb /past /past participle = invent /invented /invented

Look it up on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scramjet Good place to start

No. The X-43A is a test bed for scramjet (supersonic combustion ramjet) engine.
When a scramjet engine operates, it takes oxygen from the air rather than carrying its own supply. This eliminates the need for heavy oxygen tanks, reducing the overall weight and complexity of the system.

The scramjet, or supersonic combustion ramjet, was developed to address the challenges of efficient hypersonic flight. Traditional jet engines struggle to operate at speeds greater than Mach 3 due to increased drag and temperature, while scramjets enable sustained combustion at supersonic speeds without the need for onboard oxidizers. This technology aims to enhance propulsion systems for advanced aircraft and missiles, improving speed and fuel efficiency for various aerospace applications.
