Imagine if you will....
Clarence “Kelly” Johnson with $1,000,000,000,000.00 at his disposal! One TRILLION frick’n Dollars!
My God; we’d be in the Alpha Centauri system by now.
Not trying to sell a CF airframe to people who can’t afford it, and doesn’t really work as advertised, here on earth.
Mr. Johnson must be spinning up a storm.
None replied but at least I know who he was.
Sounds close to what he had according to some rumors ... and we may not only have been to the AC system but have gone beyond. True? Too fantastic? So, at one time or another, was radio, TV, human flight, instant communications over long distances, computers, etc.
About the money: does any one have any idea how much money has gone into ‘black’ programs since 1940? One trillion may be pocket change. There is a theory that so much money has gone into those programs that the ‘black’ military community has become a separate culture.
