NASA mysteriously trying to pull world’s fastest plane, SR-71 Blackbird, out of retirement — and won’t say why

Seeing Blackbird fly again after all these years would be incredible. I’d love to know what NASA has planned for it.

Perhaps NASA is doing it to make a trophy that might impress the imbecile emperor in hopes of securing funding for space science.

Like in Rainbow Mars when the Time Travel Bureau has to go on safari to capture extinct pets for their imbecile emperor.

Is that an actual movie? Sounds like the sequel to Idiocracy. Or a sequel to current real world events. I’ve been having trouble telling apart these things.
