*shrugs* The team's profession does not always have a huge impact.
Case in point, the episode where they had to build the amphibious vehicles the teams were a bunch of UK Navy nuclear engineers, and the other, a bunch of hobbyist motorcycle mechanics.
Guess who won? T'wasn't her Majesty's finest, their craft wouldn't even steer in the water. It was sad watching them flounder.
... [The Dyna Soar] could carry "stand-off" nuclear weapons into orbit. I am somewhat suprised that the United States government did not pursue this avenue relentlessly. In the era of McCarthyism and the Cuban Missile Crises the capability to launch nuclear arms into geo-syncronous orbit on a stand off mode would have seemingly been invaluble. And on another note, I wonder if the name of the thing is an intentional play on words or not;-)
