Due to the advancement in science and technology, now you can travel from the United States to London in less than 20 minutes. And suppose you are wondering how will that be possible. In that case, we are glad to tell you that the idea of a jet, called the Antipode, has been conceived by Canadian industrial designer Charles Bombardier.
This intriguing aeroplane will have a place for ten passengers and travel at the speed of around 16,000 miles per hour. This jet will fly off the runway just like the regular planes and then use its wing’s rocket boosters to reach the height of 40,000 feet and reach Mach 5. The aircraft would derive its power from a scramjet engine, and the scramjet engine derives oxygen from the atmosphere directly without carrying substantial oxygen tanks. These engines also do not have any moving parts and can be used for a long time.
Of course, the jet plane is right now just an idea, and it may take decades to bring this into reality. Also, as the jet will only have ten seats, the tickets will be expensive. However, till then, we can happily wait in anticipation of this incredible ride.
