Google for "orion spacecraft". Getting the Queen Mary to Mach 1 is a

The orion was like shooting a bullet shaped 10 story building into
space. It's a shame the project was scrapped. The fallout from it
would have been less than from the 3rd world countries doing nuke tests.

I taped the show on the Orion from the History channel and I'm over due
to watch it again...
