SR 71 Blackbird The fastest plane ever. I worked with a former pilot but he would never expound on the true capabilites. Still classified but he intimated that the public has no idea what it was.
I've always imagined that it as well as regular fighter jets could get outside the atmosphere and be anywhere in minutes.SR 71 Blackbird The fastest plane ever.

Used to watch them going in and out of Kadena AFB when I was on Okinawa back in the mid-80's. Amazing.SR 71 Blackbird The fastest plane ever. I worked with a former pilot but he would never expound on the true capabilites. Still classified but he intimated that the public has no idea what it was.
Wikipedia has quite a lengthy piece on the SR-71 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_SR-71_Blackbird), including a section on its altitude and speed records.SR 71 Blackbird The fastest plane ever.

Don't they have an infinite ethics manual?
Years ago, I tried to attend a football game my Godson was playing. He played on a team called the Cougars. I was last to the game. His dad told me they were having an end-of-the-season party and to just come to a specific address. I knew NO ONE at this party except my best friend and his son. I was in the kitchen talking with a bunch of strangers when a lady asked whose kid was mine on the team. With a straight face, I asked her, "What team? I thought this was a cougar party. I am just here for the cougars." I thought she was gonna lose her shit. First, that a stranger was in her house, second, she was probably about 30 and she thought I just called her a cougar! I am not sure what upset her more. I quickly told her who I was there with at the party and it all calmed down...View attachment 900244This one still cracks me up so I had to post it again !
Is flying a rocket into the side of a mountain the same as hitting a ball into the rail?Just imagine - all the time that we have put into poking at a white ball with a stick, if that time was put into something like chemistry and physics, we might all be rocket scientists.
