Well after staying up half the night studying every prototype trycycle jet of the '40's-50's...and using the last of my collectible Pervetin tablets...

WHAT's this?

First thing that came into my mind was the sci-fi movie Star Trek First contact.

I'm trying to visualize that.

First this I thought of was a jet exhaust but instead I'm going to guess some type of wind tunnel.

Could also be an afterburner on a jet.

Will be interesting to know the answer.

NASA?

Aktungbby · 01-27-21, 06:31 PM

Not NASA: BIG HINT Similar in one important aspect to this

My bad: 2 aspects!

skidman · 01-27-21, 06:39 PM

Owned by a commercial enterprise?

Buddahaid · 01-27-21, 06:43 PM

Hypersonic?

Time Tunnel

Is this wind tunnel in the US?

Aktungbby · 01-27-21, 11:51 PM

Yes

skidman · 01-28-21, 02:12 AM

Aviation industry?

Aktungbby · 01-28-21, 04:12 AM

nope!

I initially thought of a missile launching silo, but it indeed is a wind tunnel?
