Aerodynamic force and moment measurements and flow visualization results are presented for a hypersonic vehicle configuration at Mach 8. All of the experimental results were obtained in the Sandia National Laboratories Mach 8 hypersonic wind tunnel for laminar boundary-layer conditions.The basic vehicle configuration is a spherically blunted 10-deg ball-angle cone with a slice parallel with the axis of the vehicle
