The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 Foxbat travels at a top speed of Mach 2.8, or roughly 2,150 mph at high altitudes, making it the second fastest jet on Earth. The jet had advantages over others and set ...

The newly discovered jet stream travels at about 320 miles (515 kilometers) per hour—about twice as fast as a Category 5 hurricane on Earth. That’s important because Jupiter’s turbulent ...

Astronomers discover supersonic winds reaching 20,500 mph on exoplanet WASP-127b, far surpassing Earth's jet stream and setting a new planetary wind speed record.

where most of the Earth's weather occurs. The core of the jet, a fast-moving wind current that blows west to east around the Earth, reaches an average windspeed of about 80 knots, or 92 miles per ...

The F-22 Raptor was the world's first operational fifth-generation fighter jet, and remains one of the most advanced planes in the air. Lockheed Martin receives a lot of credit for making the ...

Astronomers have discovered extremely powerful winds pummeling the equator of WASP-127b, a giant exoplanet. Reaching speeds up to 33,000 km/h, the winds make up the fastest jet-stream of its kind ever ...
