Originally posted by CJ View PostIt's hard to believe that's even possible. To my knowledge, there has never been recorded footage of an SR71 at top speed. In the cockpit, or from the air/ground. Which is truly disappointing to me. There are a few airshow appearances (really few) which it flew. I've been told it's engines were absolutely thunderous, unfortunately I'll never know as will most of us. This plane being 100% decommissioned and grounded is a travesty. The CIA use to keep two on standby, but not any longer. Such a shame.
As a kid, my dad and I went to an air show where they had an sr71, someone asked capabilities and the pilot said "more than 500mph, higher than 12,000 ft" and smiled.

Long story short.. The smartest chimps can do stuff that human toddlers can do. so maybe alien life is just 1% more than us and adult humans are only as smart as their toddlers. Therefore aliens may think that there is no intelligent life here.
He went into a lot more detail than that. but its much better then the worm story. IMO
