Japan Solicits NASA's Help on Supersonic Jet

An anonymous reader writes "Since the Concorde supersonic jet is now retired, Japan is looking for the next generation supersonic flight solution. Japan's space agency is planning talks with NASA next month. They are looking for a partner since they have experienced a 'string of glitches, including a nose cone problem during the latest test flight in March.'"

I was just going to mod your comment but there is no mod for "sociopath".

Instead I am just going to suggest you climb out of your bunker and get some air. Don't worry the bogeyman isn't going to get you.

As for your comments. First of all the military doesn't know shit. Governments and intelligence agencies do, well, at least they are supposed to. Second, pork projects don't save lives or else they wouldn't be pork projects. Finally the military, at least the US military, lost the right to use the word honor at Abu Ghraib, if not earlier.
