Bloodhound Diary: It's going to get toasty
A British team is developing a car that will be capable of reaching
1,000mph (1,610km/h). Powered by a rocket bolted to a Eurofighter-Typhoon jet engine, the vehicle aims to show its potential by going progressively faster, year after year. In mid-2019, Bloodhound wants to run above 500mph. In late 2019, the goal is to raise the existing world land speed record (763mph; 1,228km/h) to 800mph. And in 2020, the intention is to exceed 1,000mph. The racing will take place on Hakskeen Pan in Northern Cape, South Africa.[...] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-45086044 -- Eduardo ---------- Alt119 - Alternate News www.alt119.net - Art Culture Lusophony |
