Therefore we should increase mass to increase power. -- Time to eat lots of food from other solar systems...it is the ultimate in energy tribute.
As a side note, it could also be pointed out that the sun's energy in nuclear.
I'm glad they managed to uncover this secret which has gone largely unnoticed in the wake of their recent nuclear ambitions... Though it has been public knowledge that nK has been working on both Biological and Chemical weapons since the 1960s!

Or don't even bother with the South Koreans and let's see what the official US government stance on this issue is:
"As we have indicated before, it is our assessment that North Korea has an active biological weapons program and is capable of producing and delivering via munitions a wide variety of chemical and biological agents, in violation of the Biological Weapons Convention." http://www.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2002/15114.htm Released on November 13, 2002
I know a secret as well, don't tell anyone, but the Soviet Union fell!
A regular jet engine has a lot of moving parts -- a compressor and turbine, at the very least -- and a lot of bearings which are prone to failure if they're not maintained every few thousand hours, they don't really like getting full of dust and crap, and they're expensive to make go really fast.
I'm aware of the difference between a regular jet and a SCRAMJET, my question was, what makes this one revolutionary? The US Military has been firing SCRAMJET engines on missiles and test planes since 2001, and have achieved speeds almost double what the Australian version managed to pull off in flight.
So again, what makes this one revolutionary? What is different about this SCRAMJET?
DARPA (Defenase Advanced Research Project Agency) testfired a scramjet missile in 2001. The US Air Force has also been working with NASA on the developement of the X-43A which already flies at mach 9+ in its test flights (http://www.nasa.gov/missions/research/x43-main.ht ml). Both the Air Force and Navy have been working to adapt the technology to their cruise missiles.
What exactly makes this engine new? Is it a whole new concept design?

You've made a logical error by proceeding from the false assumption that humans had awareness of logic prior to this introduction to algorithms.
