Posted by michael on from the fireball dept.

starannihilator writes "Wired News is reporting that NASA is planning on using its new SCRAMJET to break the aircraft speed record (on Earth, anyway) at Mach 10 (7,000 mph or 10-times the speed of sound). Using the hypersonic X-43A, NASA hopes to break the record on Monday, November 15th."

    Yeah, none of the messages I've sent to daddypants have ever been answered.

    Dead links, articles with no links to the stories, dupes, articles with blatant typos (like Christopher Reeves), and so forth.

    Oh well.
