This wasnโt science fiction. It was Operation Credible Sport. ๐บ๐ธ
In 1980, the XFC-130H was turned into one of the wildest aircraft ever tested packing 30 rocket motors to make a heavily modified C-130 capable of extreme short-field operations.
It had MK-56 boosters for takeoff, Shrike rockets for descent and ASROC rockets for braking
The plan was to land inside Tehranโs Amjadieh Stadium, extract the American hostages, and get out.
The footage shows the insane part: rockets firing as the Hercules accelerates like a fighter jet, surrounded by smoke and flames.
The mission was ultimately canceled but the engineering experiment was REAL.
MOTHER ELEPHANT TOPPLES EV CHARGER AFTER CALF BECOMES TANGLED IN CABLE
A young elephant that became entangled in a charging-station cable in Chinaโs Puโer prefecture was protected by its mother.
A family of wild elephants wandered onto an electric-vehicle charging site during the night.
One curious calf approached a charging unit too closely and became caught in the cable. Although the animal managed to free itself, the mother immediately struck the device with her trunk and overturned it.
The herd then continued its journey at a leisurely pace.

IRAN THREATENS 15,000-KM MISSILE RANGE
Senior Iranian cleric Abdolnabi Mousavifard said Iran is preparing to extend its missile range to 15,000 km (9,300 miles), potentially reaching deep into the United States.
โWe are preparing ourselves so that the American people, too, will see what it is like to be hit by missiles and understand what it means to be left in blood and destruction,โ he said.
Mousavifard also claimed Iranian missiles can already reach โdeep into Jerusalem,โ and led chants of โrevenge, revenge,โ while expressing hope Netanyahu would be โdestroyed.โ

BREAKING: SpaceX is partnering with Nvidia to design the Starmind AI1 satellite compute payload.
Each satellite will carry Nvidia's newest chips, the Rubin GPUs and Vera CPUs.
Together they deliver datacenter-class computing power, but in orbit instead of on the ground.
The goal is to run AI data centers in space, powered by the sun.
SpaceX shared the news and full details on its own site.

โ๏ธ No runway? No problem.
The Saab JAS 39 Gripen was designed to fight even if its airbases are destroyed. In minutes, a stretch of highway can become a fully operational runway, allowing the jet to refuel, rearm, and get back into the fight.
This Royal Thai Air Force road takeoff is a perfect demonstration of why the Gripen is one of the most flexible fighter jets in service today.
Would you rather have a fighter that depends on major airbases... or one that can launch from a highway?
