I watched the whole thing on NASA TV. I just stumbled on it as I was
channel surfing and watched everything from the B-52 taxiing at Edwards to
the recovery. It hit supersonic right after the tail of the rocket cleared
the B-52's nose. Very cool.

Bird traveled about 14 miles on the fuel it carried before it ran out
and shut down. What would you do with a 14 mile bird?

....while climbing like crazy and then gliding another 100 miles or so.
A lot of missiles do this ie. fast fuel burn to accelerate to say mach
5 in about 15 sec and then gliding (coasting might be a better term
here) the rest of the way to the target. It's amazing how much
momentum that much metal travelling 5000 mph will have.

What would you do with a bird that only flew 112 feet? Two brothers
from Ohio changed the world.
