Bruce Wayne may have given us the signal on Earth, but there's a bat shadow in deep space. The Hubble Space Telescope has spotted a "curious 'flapping' motion" around the star HBC 627, nicknamed the ...
A few years ago, the Hubble Space Telescope captured a striking sight in the Serpens Nebula – a huge shadow in the shape of a bat. Now, follow-up observations have shown that it appears to be ...
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope just caught the “bat shadow” of a newborn star moving — a sight the space agency evocatively compared to a pair of flapping bat wings. The star, called HBC 672 and ...
To improve the self-stabilization performance of flapping-wing micro-aircraft, Prof. Wu Xuezhong and Xiao Dingbang's team at the National University of Defense Technology (NUDT), has proposed a ...
In this undated photo provided by Facundo Vital in July 2020, an Andean condor soars above the Patagonian steppe in Argentina. To birds, the sky is not empty, but a landscape of invisible features – ...
LATER this year a team led by Adrian Thomas, a professor of biomechanics at the University of Oxford’s Department of Zoology, will try to break the human-powered water speed record. The aim is to ...
Airbus created the AlbatrossONE, a small-scale remote-controlled aircraft with wingtips that can flap like a bird during turbulence to better handle the strong gusts of winds. These hinged, flapping ...
The mighty albatross can use its huge 3.5 metre wings to circumnavigate the globe in just 46 days. But its ability to travel 10,000 miles in a single journey, without expending almost any energy, has ...
Back in 2018, we heard how UK startup Volerian was planning to build a VTOL aircraft with a unique flapping-wing propulsion system. Although we've yet to see a functioning model of that vehicle, the ...
