Abstract

Here is a challenge for a physicist: Capture a hummingbird mid-flight and freeze it instantly in a block of clear amber. In this specific nanosecond, the wing is twisted completely upside down for the upstroke. Measure the angle of every feather with perfect precision. Now, ask the question: How does it fly?
