I’m pretty sure NASA used a version of this to test the resiliency of the space shuttle tiles. Not fast enough to cook tho.
- thebruce87m 1y agoCould aim it at the space station. Would be nice to receive a fresh cooked chicken in orbit I imagine.
- olelele 1y agoWait. Orbital chicken coops w drop delivery..
- bregma 1y agoThe actual NASA chicken cannon just used gelatin blobs because at muzzle velocity the effects were the same but there was a lot less bones and feathers to clean up.
- whycome 1y agoNah. Those just cook on reentry ;)
