Well, here we go. In a few hours I hop aboard an aerospace plane and launch skyward in a ballistic arc that takes us up to about 230,000 feet at a top speed of Mach 7.6, giving us a nice smooth ride from Minneapolis, MN to Austin, TX in a little over twenty-two minutes. Just enough time to finish the complimentary martini. Astrophyyyyyyyyssssssics, FUCK YEAH!

What? What do you mean this thing hasn't entered commercial service yet? I have to ride in a subsonic turbojet? Like an animal? Balls.
