NASA’s Super Guppy is an unbelievably cool and unique aircraft.

Perhaps more akin to something from Megamind, NASA’s Super Guppy serves an important purpose.

The airplane exists for the purpose of hauling extremely large components to and from testing centers.

Back in 2013, NASA’s Guppy managed to swallow two T-38 aircraft whole.

Yet in the video, which you can see above, it still managed to make it off the ground!
