As if we needed any more stress today!

From the Daily Mail:

An unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) is scheduled to blast off between 11:01pm and 5:01am PT from California’s Vandenberg Space Force Base.

Some Americans have expressed concerns about the nuclear weapon test on the same day as the country is casting their votes for the next president.

But military officials noted that the ‘test is routine and was scheduled years in advance.’

The exercise will see the ICBM travel 4,200 miles from the base to Kwajalein Atoll, a small island in the North Pacific, which will take about 22 minutes.

The weapon can reach speeds over 15,000 miles per hour, allowing it to hit any target worldwide in just 30 minutes after launch.
