Xploration Nature Knows Best · Season 1

Ep 1: Nature That's 'Plane' to See

It's no secret that birds were the inspiration for the first airplanes but, in this episode, host Danni Washington takes a look at how exactly that connection succeeded. She'll fly planes in tight formation to try to mimic the energy-efficient flight patterns of migrating birds and look at how engineers are inventing wings that change their shape while in flight to mimic flying squirrels.
