the punch line. ---Jerry---
~NASA Windshield Test~ (Plus: Today in history, Word for the
day, Today’s horoscope, Maxine and Herman)
Sometimes it DOES take a Rocket Scientist!!
True Story (I have my doubts)
Scientists at NASA built a gun specifically to launch
standard 4 pound dead chickens at the windshields of airliners, military jets
and the space shuttle, all traveling at maximum velocity. The idea is to
simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl to test the
strength of the windshields.
British engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test
it on the windshields of their new high speed trains. Arrangements were
made, and a gun was sent to the British engineers. When the gun was
fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurled out of the barrel,
crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens, blasted
through the control console, snapped the engineer's back-rest in two, and
embedded itself in the back wall of the cabin, like an arrow shot from a bow
The horrified Brits sent NASA the disastrous results of the experiment, along
with the designs of the windshield and begged the US scientists for
suggestions.
You're going to love this... NASA responded with a
one-line memo;

"Defrost the chicken."
