Interesting story on how our government is trying to protect us from Nukes... One could take this as an invasion to privacy - I personally like the idea; but perhaps the technology needs to be tweaked a little to not pick up radioactive cats.

Welcome to Mars express: only a three hour trip

It's ready.

Heavy kudo's to Lockheed Martin and the wonderful people at the United States Military - the future of air power has arrived.
