Are you taking the transcontinental train?

This is the future of continental and intercontinental travel.

The last intercontinental ballistic missile will leave our territory by the end of 1996.

The 1999 FIFA Confederations Cup was the fourth FIFA Confederations Cup, and the second organised by FIFA.

The military folks knew that if they could put a radio transmitter in a ballistic missile shell and fly it over our heads that they have the new higher ground. So in that case the Sputnik moment was a military one.

At that time in Kazakhstan, there was a total of 148 silos for the launching of ground based intercontinental ballistic missiles.

India is continuing work on its medium range AGNI missile as well as on intercontinental ballistic missiles.

We have to do better.

At the time of Lakes' discoveries, the Transcontinental Railroad was being built through a remote area of Wyoming.

In these launching silos there were 104 intercontinental ballistic missiles, each of which was equipped with a nuclear warhead.

As the 2005 World Summit had acknowledged, transnational crime required a collective response.

On April 19, 2012, India successfully test fired its Agni V inter continental ballistic missile (IBCM).

On 19 September the United States completed the deactivation of its entire force of Peacekeeper intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).

The plan was to launch it with the R 7, an intercontinental ballistic missile in development since 1954.

In particular, China is developing, testing, and deploying a new generation of solid propellant, road mobile intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).

The soil of Cyprus never ceases to reveal further testimony to the millennial passage of history over this vital crossroads of three continents.

It was clear that the next global superpower required the ability to both launch and successfully defend nuclear attacks from intercontinental ballistic missiles.

In Russia s view which is, probably, fanciful such a shield could intercept its intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), thereby posing a strategic threat.

Moreover, members of Russia s military and political elite hoped to use some of the country s oil revenues to deploy a new generation of ICBMs.

The two stable leaders first had a two out of three falls match at Fully Loaded for the Intercontinental title, which The Rock retained in controversial fashion.

Many 19th century national proposals to build a transcontinental railroad failed because of the energy consumed by political disputes over slavery.

In February 2009, Iran introduced the SAFIR 2 space launch vehicle. This is a key stage in the development of intermediate and intercontinental range missiles.

Not only did it produce world straddling alliances, but either side could have used intercontinental missiles to destroy the other within 30 minutes.

The concept was based on examination of past cycles of formation and breakup of supercontinents, not on current understanding of the mechanisms of tectonic change, which are too imprecise to project that far into the future.

The first ICBMs, with ranges of 8000 to 12,000 km, were only possible with the development of modern ablative heat shields and blunt shaped vehicles.

India has deployed a nuclear triad bombers, missiles, and submarines and in 2012 tested an intercontinental ballistic missile, giving it the ability to hit Beijing and Shanghai.

This scheme takes into account features of oceanography that do not necessarily reflect latitude, such as major upwellings on the western boundaries of continents.8

In the United States, the government constructed transformational networks (the interstate highway system), massively subsidized their construction (the transcontinental railroads), or played the foundational role in their design and early development (the Internet).

In the United States, the government promoted agriculture in the nineteenth century supported the first telegraph line (between Baltimore and Washington, demonstrated in 1844) and the first transcontinental line, thereby launching the telecommunications revolution and then nurtured the Internet revolution.

Military efforts were initiated to develop and produce mass quantities of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) that would bridge the so called missile gap and enable a policy of deterrence to nuclear war with the Soviets known as mutual assured destruction or MAD.

Before Deng launched his four modernizations, China had acquired global military reach by testing its first intercontinental ballistic missile, the DF 5, with a range of 12,000 kilometers (7,500 miles), and developing a thermonuclear warhead.

Development of a new generation ICBM, capable of carrying up to 10 warheads, was reportedly under way, while a nuclear variant of a new bomber carried cruise missile might be deployed in 2005, and a new submarine launched missile would be deployed on two submarines under construction.

During the Cold War, the global strategic interdependence between the United States and the Soviet Union was acute and well recognized. Not only did it produce world straddling alliances, but either side could have used intercontinental missiles to destroy the other within 30 minutes.

As the first step towards meeting the reductions required by the START Treaty, the United States has already removed over 3,500 nuclear warheads from over 780 intercontinental and submarine launched ballistic missiles.

The Sputnicity of that moment I think comes from the fact, whether or not the public knew this, the military folks knew it, that Sputnik was a hollowed out intercontinental ballistic missile shell.

After years of ICBM testing, the Marshall Islands was currently hosting the United States Government's anti missile shield testing programme, which again was impacting every aspect of the lives of the local people and their natural environment.

It is an open secret that Japan has already developed not only an electronic detonating device and other components for the manufacture of nuclear bombs and for associated technology but also the means of long range nuclear delivery, which could be used as intercontinental ballistic missiles.

China was currently replacing its 20 silo based long range missiles with a longer range variant and was developing a new mobile intermediate range intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), which could be deployed by the end of the decade, as well as a longer range variant.

The consistent efforts undertaken by the Russian Federation to reduce its nuclear weapons have by now led to elimination of 1,328 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) and submarine launched ballistic missile (SLBM) launchers, 2,670 missiles, 45 strategic nuclear submarines and 66 heavy bombers.
