Instead of getting some shuteye, I opted to stay up late watching the Military Channel and caught a show on carrier construction. The best part: the catapult tests. They take these massive red sleds that weigh as much as combat-loaded aircraft and shoot them off the deck right into the water. It looks just like the Red Bull Flutag, except much faster. And surprisingly funny.
This is the shortest video I could find that features the test for CVN-77.
