According to the former director of Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works, Aurora was just a codename for an early design of the B-2 Stealth Bomber.

Heard that as well some time ago.

So that means Aurora and Blackstar ;D

Blackstar - the same as Blackswift? I saw (on a conspiracy site) some radio chatter where two aircraft flying out of Groom Lake had callsigns 'Blackstar Novemeber' and 'Blackstar Mike'.  Although the author did say that 'Blackstar' was the callsign of an Arial Recon unit, it was the first time anybody had heard it in use outside of the military.

Old news for me, we also bought some joint support ships to anyone who is intrested. Most likely from the Dutch design of there joint support ships, I had a picture but the site has malware now, so I won't post links.

The rumor of a spaceplane codenamed "Blackstar" surfaced in an Aviation Week article in 2006:

The above report has been met with widespread skepticism:

http://thespacereview.com/article/576/1

Now, obviously classified aircraft exist. The US Air Force just a few months ago revealed a new type of stealth reconnaissance drone that had been used in secret for 5 years.

But I'm skeptical of reports of secret spaceships and Mach 10 superplanes. It just doesn't make sense, technologically or economically.

RQ-170 Sentinel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_drone

USAF was forced to admit its existence after pictures taken in Afghanistan started appearing in the media. All they did was reveal its name, designation and the units operating it, we still don't know any specs, mission or capabilities.
