NYC to LA in 12 minutes

Rules be damned, when I want me an In-and-Out burger...damnit, I'm going to get there and back for my lunch break!

 

Shouldn't we be beyond hypersonic jets and into the age of the teleporter by now?

And where's my fucking hoverboard?

 

Flying cars, dude, flying cars.

 

Lost at sea.
You could still say things are going swimmingly . . .

 

The shitty driver thing always makes me think twice about flying cars, especially the drunk drivers. Everyone would almost have to be armed with a breathalizer out of the factory. Actually they should almost think about doing that with cars now.

 

1. Regulations change.
2. Couldn't the plane just go normal speed under 10,000 feet and then floor it at higher altitude?

This would be pretty cool. Probably not a practical affordable part of people's lives for 20+ years, which I base on, well, nothing.

 

Maybe one of you guys can clarify, but wasn't it planned the flight of the craft would be terminated by ditching it into the ocean? So this isn't exactly a failed mission, is it?
