Thirteen minutes - that's all it took from the time the customer clicked "order" on Amazon to when the package was delivered in the first official legal delivery of the Internet giant's PrimeAir drone delivery service in rural England.

The test took place within five miles of Amazon's drone testing facility, located outside the university town of Cambridge, and the customer lived near the site, USA Today reported.
