    Over the last year, the U.S., China and Russia have all stepped up efforts to develop a hypersonic weapon — which could fly faster and farther than almost anything in existence.https://n.pr/2D1W9i1

        Here is what scientists and engineers can do about this. Refuse to work for the Pentagon or the weapons industry. Deny them the use of your brainpower.

        You are saying that we should work on weapons development even if we have moral or religious objections? It's okay not to bake a wedding cake for gays, but not okay to refuse to work on missiles. Feels like hypocrisy to me.

        Only 8 1/2 minutes from launch to detonation. This gives so little time to respond that the chance of accidental retaliation to a mistaken alert of a launch. In past close calls had these weapons been involved...https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.history.com/.amp/news/5-cold-war-close-calls …
