Since airplane technology is usually developed alongside or with the cooperation of a country’s military establishment, it can be difficult to pin down exactly what the world’s “fastest airplane” really is. There are no doubt dozens of incredibly fast airplanes in development around the world that we just don’t know about yet.
To that end, here’s a breakdown of the five fastest airplanes in the world. Some of these are launched from traditional runways, some are launched mid-flight from other aircraft. Some of these planes have rocket engines, and some use more…

Roller coasters come in two basic varieties — steel and wood. When it comes to fast roller coasters, nothing can touch the top speeds of steel roller coasters.
Wooden roller coasters have their own advantages — people say they “feel” like a real roller coaster as opposed to the smooth ride you feel on steel. Aesthetically, a wooden roller coaster is pleasing to the eye, and no matter how much flash steel roller coasters come with, they can’t match the look of real wood…

Even the smallest piece of metal can earn you money at the scrap yard, and even though a single aluminum can…

Google is worth a lot of money, more money than most people can imagine. But assigning an actual dollar amount to what the company is worth is trickier than you might think.
It is difficult to assign a value to a company like Google. The word “google” has entered the global lexicon, standing in for “web search” the way that the brand Kleenex stands in for “tissue”, as in “Give me a Kleenex.” How many times a day do you remind yourself to “google” something later? The value of a readily-identified monopoly such as Google…
