The X-15 set speed and altitude records in the 1960s, reaching the edge of outer space and returning with valuable data used in aircraft and spacecraft design. As of September 2016, the X-15 holds the official world record for the highest speed ever recorded by a manned, powered aircraft.
RE: What does the spanish word &quot;vato&quot; mean? I am reading a novel right now where one character keeps calling the other &quot;vato&quot;, however, when I went to babelfish to get a translation, it said vato means &quot;I beat&quot;. Somehow I don&#39;t think this is the context that the word is being used in.
The word vata means to blow or move like the wind. Consisting of the elements air and ether, it is the principle force of motion in the body and mind. When vata dosha is healthy, the movements of the body are graceful, unimpeded, and yet controlled.
