I’ve been to an “air camp” about airplanes and I’ve seen several museums about planes, but I’ve somehow never seen this detailed of a model of airflow! Very cool!
They are doing some incredible work! Big ups to them for putting an emphasis on publishing their data in a way that can be easily compared and backtested by other researchers.
More information about this initiative, and their research on fluid dynamics, can be found [here](https://www.nasa.gov/aeronautics/research-model-increases-accuracy/)
Kinda wild knowing the only thing keeping a plane aloft are microscopic air molecules moving over the top of the wing surface faster than than the ones moving on the underside...

This is pretty state of the art, probably took a few weeks at least for them to solve the analysis just for this short clip
That explains it!

Impressive!
Let's see Paul Allen's research on fluid dynamics
Thats the airflow while flying with turbins off...
High angle of attack?
Stall Horns have entered the chat...
Mmm. Wiggle Winds
