Exploration 8 Alec Martin-Drones



http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/03/18/for-civilian-drones-the-sky-is-the-limit/




        In this article its all about drones and how something so small can be so useful. Drones are unman aircrafts and they are usually ranging from 7feet to as small as 3inches. They also come in many different forms, such as quadhelicopter, helicopter and planes. Each day people are learning more and more about drones after see them all over the news. The main focus  of this article was to show how drones can make most jobs easier and cut costs in modern world problems. I picked this article because i have always wanted a quadcoper and think they will be really important in the future because of there many uses.  




I saw this video a while back, but it shows you how advance drones are becoming.

  2. Drones are amazing. I read an article in time magazine that showed all of the drones currently in used by the united states government. some of them are pretty scary, just how small and how maneuverable they are. I think they drones are the future of warfare and surveillance.

  3. The idea of drones is scary but cool at the same time. It's amazing what they can do. That video was pretty neat.

  4. This is such a neat topic! I think it could be controversial though, depending on what the government uses them for. Despite the controversy, drones could be very useful.
