The facility has long been a part of the community of Wendover, Utah. About 1920 the Bonneville Corporation was formed by J. L. Silsbee. In 1964 Kaiser Aluminum acquired the facility which had by then been owned by a series of companies. The original tract of land consisted of 31,360 acres. Today, Reilly Wendover encompasses 88,000 acres which includes lands leased from the state and federal governments. When operating at full production, Reilly Wendover employs over 50 employees. The facility can annually produce over 100,000 tons of potash which is used as a fertilizer. Other products produced at the facility are magnesium chloride used in sugar processing and Dust-Top@ dust control compound; Ice-Stop" ice control agent for roads, and a small amount of sodium chloride (table salt). Potash is a freight sensitive product and thus the product produced in Wendover is sold primarily in the Western United States, particularly Califomia and Idaho. -
Thrustssc Supersonic Land Speed Record Car
ThrustSSC Supersonic Land Speed Record Car Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark Designation Ceremony, 15 March 2014 Coventry Transport Museum, Coventry CV1 1JD , UK 1 History of Land Speed Record for Cars 1898 Jeantaud Land Speed Record Car The Land Speed Record (LSR) for cars is a competition for 4- wheeled vehicles that aim to achieve the highest possible speed over either a measured mile or kilometre. Regulations of the Fédération Internationale du Sport l’Automobile (FIA) require that the speed is the average of two officially timed runs – one in each direction – and that the second run be completed within one hour of the first. The first World Land Speed Record was set in 1898 by Count Gaston de Chasseloup-Laubat driving a battery-electric powered, 36 hp, 1400 kg Jeantaud on the road in Acheres Park near Paris, France. On 18 December 1898 he achieved a one-way record speed of 63.1 km/h (39.2 mph) for the flying kilometre. The record then went to Camille Jenatzy driving his own torpedo shaped Jenatzy at 49.2 mph on 17 January 1899. During 1899 the record went back and forth between these two battery-electric, chain-driven vehicles until on 29 April 1899 Jenatzy set the record speed of 105 km/h (65.8 mph) at Acheres – a record that would stand for three years. These early records were all set in France because it had long, straight roads that encouraged high speed racing. This road system was built by Napoleon in order to march his armies from one city to another. -

As aircraft speeds gradually increased over time, the power needed to overcome the aerodynamic inefficiencies of the propeller to greater speeds and altitudes were quickly realized as a hindrance to the potential of aircraft. -
