The point of the experimental aircraft is to create one able to respond to threats quickly. As <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/aug/10/us-military-fastest-plane-falcon"><em>The Guardian </em>describes it</a>, the project was conceived in 2003 in attempt to create an aircraft to potentially deliver bombs to any part of the world in less than an hour.</p> <p><span>The vehicle was supposed to cruise through the atmosphere, roll around and then dive into the ocean. But a little before 12:30 p.m. ET, DARPA tweeted that it was not able to reacquire a signal from the craft.</span></p> <p><span>DARPA has promised more information and we’ll bring it to you as we get it <a href="http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2011/08/11/139538880/darpa-loses-contact-with-experimental-hypersonic-glider?sc=tumblr&cc=npr">on our blog <em>The Two-Way</em></a>.</span></p> </blockquote>http://beatermag.tumblr.com/post/8792862733http://beatermag.tumblr.com/post/8792862733Thu, 11 Aug 2011 17:36:02 -0400DARPAFalcon HTV-2<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpqzxmRq4q1r0boj3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://casemorton.tumblr.com/post/8767490683/troutscore">casemorton</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><span><a title="#Klout" href="https://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23Klout"><span class="hash">#</span><span class="hash-text">Klout</span></a> Scores are all the rage today, but have you checked your Trout score yet?</span></p> <p><a href="http://twitter.com/share">Tweet</a></p> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></blockquote>http://beatermag.tumblr.com/post/8792816471http://beatermag.tumblr.com/post/8792816471Thu, 11 Aug 2011 17:34:56 -0400Klout KloutScore Twitter Facebook Tumblr FishLOL funny tech humor comedy<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnedb7mrbX1qf96tto1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://lookhigh.tumblr.com/post/7084627856">lookhigh</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>The “Human Squirrel” who did many daring “stunts” in climbing for benefit of War Relief Funds in New York City, ca. 1918.
