Discussing physics with you is just enjoyable, not wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sometimes make grand assumptions from too small of a sample size. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sonic boom portion is actually one of the tests they did on a higher end of the "thorough" scale. Obviously it wasn't thorough enough for some people, though.

Maybe? I dunno, I'm not in the mood for arguing on the internet. I think there's a saying about that somewhere... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
