NATURE takes flight on an exhilarating ride with elite winged predators in Raptor Force.
Humans have had a unique relationship with raptors, nature’s aerial killing machines, for more than four thousand years, first through the ancient sport of falconry, and, more recently, as scientists and engineers have turned to these mighty birds — from golden eagles, red-tailed hawks, and turkey vultures, to great gray owls and the peregrine falcon — as the inspiration for the latest in aircraft design. Using the tricks and tactics of raptors as their model, engineers have devised fighter jets with unprecedented maneuverability and stealth.
In Raptor Force, you’ll learn the secrets of these astonishing aerialists, and how they’ve mastered, more than any other type of bird, the art of soaring. And with the help of engineer and falconer Rob MacIntyre’s ingenious miniature television station — a camera, transmitter, and battery small enough to be harnessed onto the backs of raptors — you’ll see for yourself what it’s like to fly with these deadly aces.

What makes you so sure that your Facebook traffic ever left the United States? Both China Telecom and SK/Hanaro Telecom have *significant* US presences. China Telecom has a point of presence and IP space right (66.102.248.0/24 for example) in Herndon, and SK/Hanaro has several peerings in several US data centers. With the recent routing instability due to worldwide fiber cuts in the Pacific (think Japan) and a cross-Atlantic OC-192 outage, such a temporary routing path on a big peering center would no tbe unexpected. Next time, do a “traceroute -A” on a Linux system and combine with GeoIP from maxmind.com to determine where in the globe your traffic is going. You would be surprised. A lot of those “foreign” AS’s are advertising IPs physically located in the US.
