Scramjet: Soaring past expectations
The Scramjet is something that you might have heard of if you are interested in aeronautics. It is an engine created by NASA that helps propel an object at unthinkable speeds. In it's first test it hit over Mach 7. This is the fastest any human created object has ever flown. The X-43A, the name of the vehicle with the Scramjet, broke all expectations. In a later test, the Scramjet was able to go over Mach 8, soaring into the record books.
Scramjet has a promising career for the future. With the capability of eventually hitting up to Mach 23, it is in NASA's expectations to use this with new missile, unmanned, space, and other technology for the future. While it is relatively young, it has changed the way that aeronautical engineers look at the future of flight. For more information, check out www.nasa.gov.

Rock Band: Rocking out on the latest gaming platforms
So today's first review is from the game Rock Band. Rock Band is a multi player game designed around the game Guitar Hero and Singing Star. It is unique for its features. You have a lead guitarist, bassist, singer, and drummer. The guitar and singing are almost identical to Guitar Hero and Singing Star. But with the introduction of a drummer, it could make the game interesting to play. Reports of the game say that when you are playing on heavy with the drumming, it is almost like playing in real life with all the fills and solos. Since this is like this, personally, it would make more sense to make a real band and play. But for those who are instrument illiterate, this is probably a good exception. But that is about it for now! Keep in touch for more reviews and reports.
