Visit this site to learn about shock waves and how they depend on the speed of a moving object. You'll find out how a "blunt body" minimizes heating on reentry and see images of shock waves made in a wind tunnel. Also, you'll how a vehicle can to ride on its own shock wave and you'll see prototype aircraft, including the XB-70 bomber, that have used this concept.
