hahaha funny tweet
i imagine the mach 10 speed is to deliver them quickly to the target while in orbit then afterward to rod will slow to almost terminal velocity before striking.
or not...
:)
A low earth orbiting platform as moving at about 27000 miles per hour. Mach number takes on strange meaning or no meaning when there is little or no atmosphere (need air for sound, therefore speed of sound reference). But if you deorbit into the atmosphere, that 27000 mph very rapidly gets slowed to 100 to 300 mph (maybe 450) depending on shape and mass, before it hits the ground. That’s just frictional drag.
Lol!!!
BTTT
Even that would likely show up on a seismograph and am not aware of any university or lab reporting a seismic anomaly in that part of the world. If something, like that had happened I doubt if it could be kept secret for very long. People would be pointing it out & speculating. The Trump Haters would be out claiming he’s trying to start WWIII.
Sometimes things are just as they seem.
Lol!! I love Sean Spicier.
I think his wife and sister are both smarter than Kimmy and they are pushing too...
We all realize that the trap has been set? Democrats unleashed a slew of demands, most which will be ignored by Trump. Problem with this is the Democrats in the Senate can move this to the Rats in Congress to use this as impeachment bait.
I guarantee if a deal is cut, this will be the new MSM strategy.
It's the USS Jimmy Carter (SSN23) actually and this article explores some of the possible reasons they might have been flying the Jolly Roger:

Whether an agreement is reached at this summit or not, Trump has changed the the way everyone involved is looking at the problem. Trump is building and maneuvering chutes and corrals as no one else could. What Kim and Xi may be thinking of today, as their first bids in the haggling, will be their fall back positions tomorrow. They are ready to submit. They know Trump has the backing of the West (the people, not the media personalities). They trust Donald Trump, and know that a significant settlement is in their best interest.
There may not be an agreement this week, but it is coming, and it is coming soon. Meanwhile, Trump will effortlessly dismantle seventeen other political clusterfcks.
Thank you in advance, President Trump!
Very high density (tungsten), very low cross section (long and skiny), and a very steep descent (the atmosphere is only ‘thick’ near the ground), and you could have ridiculous velocity and energy on the target. What you cannot have, is stealth. There would be terrifying incandescence, there would be a massive contrail of black smoke, and there would be a very loud bank or two — it would be like....a meteor!
Let’s pray they aren’t that smart..
