Four exorbitantly expensive graduates flew this missions from the ground. This is the culmination of years working on this project, a large bank of computer displays, uninterruptible and encoded satellite data channels. "We are very pleased with this outcome." said the spokeswoman from NASA. She went on: "Our next step is to try and save a fortune by having human beings fly these aircraft. We believe they will require less training, require less infrastructure, be more adaptive to the environment, give a smoother ride and be capable of dealing more quickly with any problems that may occur during flight. Unfortunately, we have so much money to spend on projects like this we are unable to envisage any time in the future when we can start planning for a manned flight."
