Good day everyone
While looking at Nasa site today I spotted a piece on the X-15 !
www.nasa.gov...
what a fascinating craft for it's time. I never realized that in the 50s there were flights that reached over 300k feet and even achieving weightless state.
This is a craft that was launch via B52 and achieved Hypersonic speed (Mach 6+) the craft even provided very valuable data on atmosphere re entry!
I am really amazed that in the 50s the technology was so far ahead..... makes me really wonder where things are today and the possibility of a Space defense force or even where USA offensive forces fit into this picture.
I can only imagine what advances have been made since the 50s
