Is it cold in here?:
I just read about a company that designs custom interiors for private jets. Want a hot shower installed with a stone floor? A dishwasher? They'll make it happen.

They got a request to install a fireplace.

For sheer bonkersnessitude, I'll be impressed if anyone can beat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Pluto.

Not as nope as Project Pluto, but... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_Nuclear_Propulsion#Direct_Air_Cycle

The root beer flavored milk is something I'd want to try once, I think.

I visited the place where they worked on the nuclear aircraft engine and learned some history.

They actually stopped to think about what would happen if an airplane crashed with a reactor on board.

So they took some spent fuel, full of intensely radiating fission products, piled it up outdoors, poured jet fuel over it and set it on fire to find out what would happen.
