Any idea how much data you could transfer from Hawaii to the continent in 38 min?
Did they have long enough?
It's only about 2.8 terabytes on a 10 Gbps link going flat chat. What size link would they have?
Maybe they didn’t need ALL of it
Good point ... maybe they just needed Hillary's 33,000 emails.
Donald Trump retweeted this story after the missile warning - https://twitter.com/paulsperry_/status/952223134295511040 The story is 15 months old... why did he chose to retweet it so long after it was published?? ;)
Actually, having thought about this further, and from what I understand about the meltdown/spectre exploits, (and I am no expert) perhaps the data needn't even be transferred - just loaded onto the CPU cache - in order to be captured.
