  Where's the beef? The video shows something spinning inside the cylinder and then a drawing of two circles connected by a line. WTF!? What altitude did this reach?

    They topped out at 30,000 feet, in 2022. They haven't done any tests since then, and they haven't reached the level of a commercial airliner.
