The X-24B in flight used in this Video's thumbnail image, was a fascinating concept. The Northrop M2-F3, a later iteration of the same "heavyweight lifting body" category of aircraft, crashed at the Dryden Flight Research Center in 1967. Yet it was not before having reached a speed of Mach 1.6 and its highest altitude being 71,500 feet (20,790 m), that on December 20, 1972, it was deemed a date, set to be the last of its flights, which was flown by NASA pilot John Manke handling the demanding task, in controlling such an unconventional and dangerous aircraft.

Kilowatt? What in the hell is a kilowatt? Now horses, those I understand. This engine you speak of, how many horses was it equivalent to? I measure energy potential in units of horse, like a perfectly sane person.
To me it seeems like saying the lifting bodies led to the Space shuttle is a long bow to draw. Those lifting bodies should have led to small Gemini and Apollo sized craft that were simply shaped like lifting bodies that could land like a plane, doing away with water splashdowns. Instead (in typical American fashion), massive money was wasted on the Space Shuttle (which ironically did have wings). You may say, well the Space Shuttle had a cargo bay. I say "big deal" - we all know that rockets can easily deliver satellites to orbit. The Space Shuttle was a colossal failure (not to mention 14 dead astronauts).
I'm an American pilot. I am so "tired" of these British accents narrating these videos. Aren't most of the aeronautical achievements that you're featuring American accomplishments? Yes.... So, cut the crap. It's "pretentious"!! If Americans admired the Brits so much, that we wanted to continue to speak as they do, we wouldn't have fought the Revolutionary War.
Don’t forget that, since you are an aviator, they also gave the U.S. their first turbojet (to General Electric in great secrecy in 1941). They also shipped, under false name, Frank Whittle, so his knowledge could be properly transferred. It powered the first jet aircraft to fly on U.S. soil, the Bell XP-59. It also powered the first operational jet fighter, the Lockheed P-80, which initially fought not successfully against the MiG-15 in Korea, which was ironically powered by the same British (reverse engineered) turbojet. It was designed by another genius of aviation, Kelly Johnson, of Swedish descent. General Electric still worships Whittle to this day, and I am sure that Pratt & Whitney is also remembering the British genius, as it also gave them their first turbojet. As for the axial turbojet, let’s not forget that Britain also shared Metrovick’s knowledge… The Comet was the first jet airliner (initially powered by the same Whittle engines), and the Concorde (1/2 British) is still an unsurpassed icon of aviation. The Soviets blatantly failed in having a properly operational supersonic passenger jet, but Boeing, despite Kennedy’s statement (similar to the moon race), did not unfortunately go anywhere (Boeing 2707). The test pilot with the most impressive record in history is, certainly in numbers, the British/Scottish Eric Brown, and it will probably be impossible to ever beat all his achievements. He was obviously hated by Chuckle Yeager. Britain definitively has an everlasting say in aviation history, especially considering their population size, and resources. If you think about the pinnacle of the automotive world, Formula 1, all proper cars are made by British engineers, with very rare exceptions, and sometimes a spark of brilliance by the Italians. Ford (GT40), in order to beat Ferrari, had to have Britain build a proper car for them, sadly mostly forgotten in glorious movies. They really have brilliant engineers, in general. By the way, I am not British, but I have a tendency to recognize achievements, and when it comes to accents do not forget the Nikola Teslas, Elon Musks, Amedeo Giannini (the founder of Bank of America, the largest bank in the world under his tenure, and most importantly a rare breed of moral bankers), or Von Braun, since I mentioned the moon landings.

Gotta say that's the most futuristic-sounding pronunciation of the old fashioned "flatiron" we'll ever hear. Flat-e-ron. Kinda sings.
Lifting body experiments. NASA first attempt at designing the Space Shuttle.
🙄 Wonderbra were there well before NASA surely?

Where's Von Braun in the aerospace section, talking about preserving human life?
Probably discussing saving lives with Oppenheimer .

Oh come now, dealing with compressibility was seen as a physics problem, nothing more. Hardly an intractable matter.
A house divided against itself cannot stand.
Yeah well, one side is actively trying to burn the house down.

Learn other units of energy.
It’s what educated people use. Also, a horse has over 10 horse powers.
