the picture above is from the X45-A, while the Phantom Ray is being based on the larger X45-C. Here's a sweet image of what the Phantom Ray should look like:

A color can be thought of as the tendency for a material to absorb certain wavelengths of the visible spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, or simply light. The color black is the presence of all colors thereby absorbing all visible wavelengths and reflecting none. The color white is the absence of all color thereby absorbing none of the visible wavelengths and reflecting all. For light, black is the absence and white is the presence of all visible wavelengths.

Therefore, only one 'school of thought' exists in regards to color and light.

Thank you and good day.

@egghead:
"The color white is the absence of all color."
If you do not immediately see how this sentence (which you wrote) creates a dichotomy of thought on the semantics of "color", you should count to ten and then read it three times.
If that doesn't work, replace the word "color" with "liquid" and the word "white" with "water", and then try again.]]>May 18th 2009 3:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/Just last month a UCAV had it's first kill, and now their making stealth UCAV's.
I suppose a bonus is it's less soldiers out on the battlefield, though it's a bit 'unfair' to the side that hasn't got any robots to fight on it's behalf.

I don't know if the GOV always had the intention to make unmanned robot controlled equipment with science fiction reporting on the situation, or if science fiction led science to the situation we're entering, but this is starting to look ominously like the scary stories.

They can't ban us from the servers...this is real life. Don't worry so much about our enemies, rest assured, they can kill us just fine.

And on top of that the guy that pulled the trigger is on the other side of the world. So even if you took out the sniper-bot all you need is to build another one n deploy it, and that doesn't take 9 month's to build n 21 years to code it.

Thankfully AI UCAVs n soldiers are against Geneva convention, so none of the nations that can make AI soldiers will think twice before letting them loose on the battlefield.]]>May 10th 2009 9:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/May 10th 2009 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/May 10th 2009 11:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/

That's putting it mildly.

Keep in mind, most of the 3rd world countries getting bombed don't even have anti-air defenses or a marginally effective air force.

The simple FACT is: the country with more money (or moreFIAT money and debt) can afford to enslave and dominate the world)

Without terrorism and asymetrical warfare, these poor folks wouldn't have any possibility of fighting back.

I can respect them for being willing to give their lives to wound their oppressor despite how pathetic and hopeless victory is. ]]>May 10th 2009 9:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/10/boeing-developing-phantom-ray-fighter-sized-combat-uav/
When we use our advantages, such as our brains to fight back and he classifies us evil. When these POS ignorant smelly "terrorists" use their advantage, taking a bath, shaving and blending in with normal people while they have a bomb strapped to their body in order to blend and kill innocents, that is OK????

Each fights with the advantages given them.

You are just one of those liberal politically correct nitwits.

I am guilty as you charge. Yes I am guilty of supporting my government making weapons to kill this stinking venomous crew in any way possible. Yes I am guilty of wanting my country to free us of the constraints these Islamic lunatics have imposed for the sake of Allah.

And I don't even think my vote matters incidentally since I'm not that mainstream.

I also think that all these islamic women NOT raising their kids and even encouraging them to just kill and be abusive to women and people with other views aren't 100% innocent, not that they should be murdered, but come on let's not be so primitive that we can only see black and white and behave like it's the middle ages, we all are part of the machinery in some way.

As to "googling" the term nucs versus Nukes, what are you saying. That slang catches on? No kidding.
