What we can do when we try is exemplified by the jet propulsion story.
The general belief at the end of the late war was that we were far ahead in the development of jet propulsion.
Will he give every assistance possible in the development not only of nuclear propulsion but also possibly of jet propulsion?
I want for the moment to go back into the history of jet propulsion in this country.
The change-over to jet propulsion is not a change of degree; it is a change of type.
The jet propulsion system may help us enormously in air development after the war.
I know that the jet propulsion system is more efficient at high altitudes, but it might be capable of adaptation for flying boats.
We, in this country, pioneered almost every engineering development the world has seen—steam, gas, electricity, and now jet propulsion.
