On a radar screen in an aircraft or in a ground-based radar station, an airplane appears as a blip. The larger the aircraft, the larger the blip appears on the screen. Aircraft designers have worked for years to minimize the radar signature of an aircraft. If the radio waves are deflected or absorbed so they don't return to the radar antenna, then the airplane is invisible or could be mistaken for a flock of birds or other non-threatening object. Aircraft designers use a jumble of curved surfaces and other design tricks to deflect radar waves in unexpected patterns. Planes are painted with thick paint that can absorb radar waves instead of reflect th

POPSThe New iPhone is Here! The excitement about the new iPhone has caused the Apple Worldwide developer conference to sell out. This propeller feast is being over run by iPhone enthusiast, who are betting on the success of this second generation product. I waited until the last minute to get my tickets and I got locked out.
