WHAT'S NEW ?

The two astronauts sent to the International Space Station (ISS) in the Space X dragon capsule are allowing the ISS crew to do repairs outside the station.  They didn't have enough people on board to preform outside maintenance before.  

The US Air Force (ASAF) is operating an aircraft they call RQ-170 in Nevada.  It is basically a "stealth drone".  It will directly support ground troops with surveillance, reconnaissance and target location.  We are into the 5th generation of drones.

The US military has developed a secret 'ninja' bomb packed with blades.  The R9X missile is a 'blade bomb'.  You heard me - it deploys blades or knives which chop up everything in it's path.  It is hoped the smallest of these would have the ability to kill a single person in a vehicle and not harm the others.  

Do you feel another James Bond movie in the making?
