The great barrier reef (bodies of water). In all seriousness, i think there will be far too many problems. All the man that i need.
Breaking the sound barrier was to aviation what neil armstrong's first step was to the space program:
It is the hole expanding faster than the speed of sound in the air which breaks the sound barrier causing a sonic boom. Others who have tried to break the records have lost their lives in the process. The first flight at faster than the speed of sound occurred on 14 october 1947. In researching this question, i was somewhat surprised to find that a bit of controversy still surrounds the subject of who was actually first to break the sound barrier.
