depends on your volume. If you move millions of packages a day like USPS/UPS/fedex then hub and spoke

A train leaves Huston at 4:54 am, averaging 88 mph. Another train headed in the same direction leaves Huston at 5:45 am, averaging 108 mph.

To the nearest minute, at what time will the second train overtake the first train?

No, and that's not even a time! I'm afraid I'm going to have to report this failure up the chain of command.

at 1200 lbs a piece? Got to put it on a pallet. Unless it's a single heavy item you have to crate that poo poo. Then you have to get it to a plane and load it, fly it, unload and deliver it. Maybe some freight shippers are insane enough to charge less but 1200 for 5 is impossible imo

Why cant we make RTGs that utilize americium?

Do you think a regular turboshaft jet could have its compression stage fed by a set of valved pulse jets for a larger combustion and higher thrust?

Do you think Blue Buffalo cat food is worth the extra price?
