> need the gravity

There have been experiments with pregnant rats that were launched into space and successfully delivered litters afterwards.

Rats born in space struggle to orient themselves right side up in gravity, but they figure it out in a few days.

From what I can find, there haven’t been any experiments on conception or zygote implantation in space, but that’s because they can’t get the rats to figure out how to bang in zero gravity, not because of any specific reason it shouldn’t work.

This is a little reminiscent of the NASA scientists who were convinced that microgravity would interfere with Sally Ride’s menstrual cycle.

The D-21 was fast (at least Mach 3.3) but hypersonic is over Mach 5, so it wasn’t quite hypersonic.

It’s the modern version of Freemen of the City driving sheep over London Bridge just because they can.

That probably depends on how skilled the ship’s helmsman is /s

Minors can’t execute a power of attorney so this shouldn’t have been enforceable. Only their parent(s)/guardian(s) can execute it, and they generally expire after six months to a year. This sounds like they were trying to use a meaningless document to bluff.

You have to be a citizen or permanent resident to enlist. PRs are trying to make it their country.

I’m not that old, but I remember that, when I was young, “human-controlled robotic hand that can grab objects” was the absolute cutting edge of mechatronic engineering. Now high school students can build a dextrous prosthetic for their classmate. How far we’ve come.

There’s an RAF and RCAF tradition of burning pianos at social functions, so I was actually willing to believe that it was a destructive air-dropping.

Oh, they had parachutes attached. That’s much less fun.

This is total speculation, but anyway:

Underground warfare made a brief resurgence in WW1, because the front lines in Flanders were on top of soft chalk and the trench lines meant that the Western Front devolved into siege warfare. Counter-mining was also a serious concern, so the troops digging the tunnels would sometimes drill holes, soak the rock with vinegar to soften it further, then scrape away the top layer and repeat. This was a lot quieter than just hacking away with a pick.

FYI the US government only bought 61% of the company; the rest was held by the governments of Canada and Ontario, the unions (UAW and CAW), and GM’s former bondholders.

Your first paragraph is merging NeXT and Pixar, which were entirely separate companies.

Abu Dhabi police arrested and deported a cis man and a trans woman for dressing like women in 2017.

It depends on the school.

OP’s clearly does.

Gomez isn’t particularly attractive in the original New Yorker cartoons. Having him be handsome and suave was something that originated with the first TV series and continued in the movies.
