I think there are plenty of birds doing plenty of sneaky stuff.

Lockheed has a very large staff, and massive facilities.

Something is being created. “:^)

Bobby Darin and Eddie Albert are in it, IIRC.

Eddie played a problem patient that Dr. Newman was treating.

SPOILER: It doesn't end well.

Don’t pay any attention to my caustic comments. Neil de grasses Tyson has just made me into a cynic with that “the world is an oblate spheroid” comment of his. So it’s hard to take things seriously with regard to space stuff. Lol

Yup. Eddie took a high head first Swan dive off a water tower. The tower still Stands.

They are certainly not keeping this program very secret with all of the information and photos that have been released.

Matter of fact I think that stupid shuttlecock gets its gyroscope thingy stuck and starts going in circles over Florida panhandle most every evening starting about dark till around 10:00 pm. It is either that or Howard Hughes is back from the dead flying the grey goose up there.

“Remote sensing”? . . .”all kinds”. . .do you mean this kind as well: http://www.irva.org/remote-viewing/definition.html

;-)

(Side note: Back in the 90’s I was doing a ground FAC job with the Army and was headed to the F-15E. I was approached by some guys to join the official US government RV world. . .so, the choice was a) return to flying fighters, or b) “use the Force, Luke” type of job.)

Are those Laser Cannon’s or Particle Beam Cannon’s in the nose? Perhaps Rail Cannon’s?

Whatever comes down must first go up.

Plutonium rods are heavy.

I wonder whether it was testing a variety of electromagnetic or reactionless drive.

It emits a phased plasma array, but I’m not sure of the width.

That bird most likely is from Eglin. One bored holes over our house last week for over an hour. I’m told they are practicing targeting.

Unless you are using the Grav-O-Matic 5500 gravity nullifier.

Since it orbits lower than anything else, with thrusters it can change it’s path...flying under everything.

It doesn’t take much power to disable a satellite from another system in space.

The combo of very low orbit, high speed and maneuverability make it an ideal satellite killer.
