Original Note:
The NASA space shuttle travels much faster at top speeds than the SR-71. The space shuttle is launched with the aid of huge rocket boosters not shown in the photo and only reaches top speeds at elevations where there is virtually no air resistance. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/10/25/space-shuttle-reaches-top-speeds-in-space-not-atmosphere-fact-check/70897968007/#
