Autoblog: With NASA's calendar freshly cleared out, they are now free to partner with Chrysler.

It has turbines on it

So does a dyson vacuum. Doesn't make it a turbine engine.

How do you not classify a gas turbine engine as a turbine engine? Or are you referring to the photo of the rocket engine?

Just because it has an impeller doesn't make it a turbine.
Besides, I thought Spectre opened the door for brain-farting when he busted out that whole NASA = defense comment.

This. We're saying that a gas turbine engine is not a rocket, which was the original request.

Just say you were talking about this and put the wrong link in.

So someone at NASA saw the Top Gear episode with the Reliant Robin Shuttle and thought, "Now that the Space Shuttle is gone, we can put crappy cars in orbit for nothing. Who makes the worst cars we can think of to get cars cheap... Chrysler!!"

Am I the only one who put these two together when hearing of this?

Dammit man. First Kajun, then you.....

Please tell me there's a video of this thing

 

[Delll]

Please tell me there's a video of this thing

Can I tell too?

 

[British_Rover]

NASA isn't part of the DoD.

Since when have facts or details mattered to Specter when he decides to rant against the Obama administration?

Ha! Missed that one. Great minds think alike.

Perhaps there may be a good use for Chrysler cars after all...since they're not very good at their current role of being A to B cars.

 

[Shentar]

Can I tell too?

Please tell me those are Z-rated tires..

 

[ja404]

Wow that's awesome

 

[SpitfireMK461]

That. Is. Awesome.

Is that a Dodge Caravan, or a Plymouth...*ahem* Voyager?

Still not a Rocket, though.

 

[nsx_23]

How about a Jet Engine AND a rocket?

 

[Mr. Nice]

GM is getting in on this too. Or R2, or something like that.

That would make it the Plymouth V'ger.

That would make it the Plymouth V'ger.

I always suspected that V'ger was a Plymouth Voyager.

V'ger is revealed to be Voyager 6, a 20th-century Earth space probe believed lost. The damaged probe was found by an alien race of living machines that interpreted its programming as instructions to learn all that can be learned, and return that information to its creator. The machines upgraded the probe to fulfill its mission, and on its journey the probe gathered so much knowledge that it achieved consciousness.
