Do they actually go that fast in our atmosphere? Thought they only got to that speed once they leave it and there is no gravity pushing down on it.

That is the mother of all fast things. Big up to the yanks. They maybe able to build re-orbital space vehicles but they can't build automobiles that go round corners!

super_si: It's a good job you can't become a shuttle pilot. I don't think that Scoobynet could respond quickly enough to your posts in Computer Related to enable you to fly it at that speed!!
