Why do biological limbless crawlers execute extension-contraction waves? Traveling waves of muscle contraction are the most energy-efficient: they maximize the body’s displacement with minimal energy consumption. Great work Sreejith Santhosh!šŸ‘‰journals.aps.org/pre/abstract/1…

Astrobiologists are thrilled after discovering a location on Earth that’s excellent for answering questions about the exploration of Saturn’s moon Enceladus & similar hydrothermal systems on other ocean worlds. Here’s what makes the analog site so unique: go.nasa.gov/3Emckns

New paper showing that the laminar-turbulent transition in pipe flow is in the directed percolation universality class. We finessed the need for a 4km long pipe and 100 years of data using RG, molecular dynamics, and fine data on puff interactions. nature.com/articles/s4156…
