One 'impossibility' that amused me was a rigorous proof by an
aeronautical engineer in the 1940s (1920s?) that airplanes will
absolutely never be able to fly faster than 300 mph because of certain
fundamental properties of materials, wind resistance, the molecular
structure of matter, and the inertial stress of changing direction at
'high' speed.

Cheers,
