Test Videos?

A video I've been looking for is a flight test video of a 'brilliant pebble' wherein a kinetic interceptor is put through a series of manuvers in a room over a catch net. A voice calls out each manuver, then the interceptor does it. The video runs from the start of the test through the interceptor running out of fuel and dropping into the net. Actual runtime of the interceptor would be much longer in space because during th test it had to constantly pulse whichever thruster(s) pointed down to hover.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bizzybody (talk • contribs) 08:23, January 16, 2007 (UTC)

Where, how to mention Single Stage Rocket Technology program

Encyclopedia Astronautica:DC-X says "The Single Stage Rocket Technology program was an SDIO (Space Defense Initiative Office) programme to demonstrate technology readiness for an SSTO vehicle. The SDIO (Strategic Defense Initiative Organization) issued a call for proposal for design studies of a single stage to orbit launch vehicle in August 1990. Six companies responded, four proposing vertical takeoff concepts (McDonnell-Douglas, Rockwell, General Dynamics and Boeing) and two proposing air-launched concepts (Grumman and Third Millennium). A total of $ 12 million in study contracts were awarded to the four companies proposing VTO designs, reflecting SDIO's preference for VTOL concepts studied in an Aerospace Corporation report of the previous year." The SSRT program led to the DC-X (so could mention it there (too)). - Rod57 (talk) 11:16, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Civilian benefits of military-funded basic research

This is a point often brought up, that even a mostly failed military project that costs a lot of money (how much was eventually spent, apparently we’ll have to look elsewhere- not a npov question I guess!!) ends up having basic research side-effects that help the civilian (well, read “business”, in many cases) sector as well. Why one should never help the actual civilian sector more directly is never made clear. ELSchissel (talk) 13:37, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
