China claims to have successfully tested its first hypersonic
aircraft, a big step forward in aerospace technology that could
intensify pressure on the US military.
The China Academy of Aerospace Aerodynamics (CAAA), based in Beijing
and part of the state-owned China Aerospace Science and Technology
Corporation, conducted the first test of the "Starry Sky-2" aircraft
last Friday.
Hypersonic vehicles are not simply high-speed -- they travel at least
at five times the speed of sound. That's fast enough to travel across
the US in around 30 minutes.
According to a CAAA statement released Monday, the Starry Sky-2
reached a top speed of Mach 6 -- six times the speed of sound, or
4,563 miles (7,344 kilometers) per hour.

The problem is Donald Trump. The solution is impeachment or, the otherwise legal
removal, from office, of the greatest threat to peace the world has ever known.
