MIT successfully Flies First Plane With No Moving Parts (Video)
The overlap between those arenas is necessarily massive.
I'm more impressed by the guy that made the flying platform out of levitating bug wings.
It glides temporarily and hits the ground. Where's the success? Nazi's actually start taking anti-grav and invisible energy seriously in the 30's, and this is the best the rest of the world can come up with in 100 years since then? I am disappoint.
To the dipshits who can't tell the difference between a plane and a glider: planes have engines, gliders don't. That means that planes have moving parts and gliders are completely solid state. That also means that planes provide their own thrust and gliders rely on lift alone to stay in the air. The whole point of the MIT plane was that it was able to propel itself through the air without the use of conventional propeller/turbine engines, which means it's a plane that's completely solid state.
It flew about as much as the Wrights' plane did. Was that not a success?
Yeah a success 100 years ago when planes weren’t even thought of yet versus this crap
And the Wright Bros, used an internal combustion engine, the technology of which was far more widespread and developed at that time than the ion propulsion of this plane is now. Also:
Yer a moron, Harry. People had been trying to make powered flight a thing for for YEARS before the Wrights' did it. They just happened to be the the ones that did it first. Same with Edison and the light bulb.
I don't know, but science could have been advanced if your nigger mother tied drapes to your arms and threw you out of the second story window
Damn son. Such butthurt from a simple question. Your going to need these for that blown colon.
