From Goddard to Global Strike

Over at The Woracle blog my colleague Graham Warwick (pr. Wor-rick not War-wick as so many Americans do) has plenty of info on US military hypersonic vehicles

Here Northrop Grumman gives details about the thermal protection system technology its developing with the US Air Force Research Lab that could be used on the likes of DARPA's FALCON for prompt global strike and/or future reusable rockets

For those of you who prefer a cislunar strike capability Northrop is now building the Lunar CRater Observation and Sensing Satellite that will smack into the Moon sending a greater than 250,000kg (550,000lb) plume higher than 32,700ft from the lunar surface

While a launch of an alleged Israeli spy satellite by an Indian rocket was held up this week

But if that's all a bit dry for you then here is a surprisingly informative film for US school kids from the 1960s that includes film of Robert Goddard's work
