A material comparable to sharkskin — an outer casing made of plastic, shaped with microscopic grooves — could repel dirt and
reducing air friction up to 5 percent.
The result was a 365 - pound car that looked something like a flounder on bicycle wheels but was capable of moving at 50 mph on less than two horsepower, thanks to a near - complete absence of mechanical friction and a minimum
of air friction.
Magic shit happens...
air friction, strange snorts, assumed bong rips, and general lunacy.
When a football is thrown with a bit of a wobble, as opposed to a tight spiral, it will not travel as far, because it presents more surface area in the direction of flight resulting in a greater degree of
air friction, also called drag.
There's too much air to rely solely on rockets to slow a craft's descent, but not enough to use just parachutes and
air friction, as can be done here on Earth.
