I mis-typed, 4.5 years ago when I said that the LM docking ring was separated when Snoopy was jettisoned — it was the CM’s docking ring, which means that LM-4's docking node is blocked. (Even if it wasn’t, the LM docking drogue was left inside the LM cabin, which means there’d be nothing to grapple, assuming, of

Actually, a Prandtl–Meyer expansion fan occurs due to the low pressure region trailing the transonic shock cone.

A few hundred F18s?

That’s the ‘Football’ — it’s where the receivers for the AN/ALQ-99E tactical jamming system are housed. The 99E’s transmitters were housed in the ventral ‘Canoe’ which took the place of the AN/AVQ-26 Pave Tack e/o targeting pod on the Spark Vark.

Demonic is about how I’d describe my mood this morning, thanks to a burgundy Toyota Sienna whose driver decided it was a good idea to stop at a light while sitting abreast the crossing gate at one of Durham’s at-grade railroad crossings.

I’m very dubious about this without seeing their survey methodology. Asking 100 people from every state does not a good survey model make, unless they appropriately weighted responses based on population density and urban vs rural distribution of respondents.

The Panzergranate 39 (PzGr. 39) APCBC projectile was designed to penetrate about 5-5.5 inches of plate armor and then detonate a relatively small HE charge in a very small confined space inside of the vehicle, damaging equipment and turning whatever people were inside into a red sticky puddle of viscera.

The downselect for the single variant that will be produced as the post-LCS-33 LCS/FF won’t be chosen until 2019, according to the program reorganization memo that SecDef Carter sent to SecNav Mabus, yesterday.

Case in point: USS Stark (FFG-31), whose aluminum superstructure did not burn (or melt) despite being doused in rocket fuel (from a dud-Exocet) and then struck by a second Excocet, which ignited the fuel.

They did. They picked both designs for production.

Hasn’t Star Wars taught you hot to respond when someone says, “I love you?”

Which is exactly what the cops said they did — the woman asks if the police had followed them and the officer responded that they had the plate number from the caller, had run the tags and were waiting at the house.

E24! (With the requisite damaged front air dam).

No. The LM Aquarius was only separated from CM Odyssey unmanned and following release of the Service Module.

Thanks for the Logitech advertisement. (Shouldn’t this be listed as “Sponsored” content? And why did Patrick George promote this to the front page of Jalopnik?)
