Everybody and just about everything pees.
The investigation into the sharpshooter’s excretion process began the way many scientific journeys start: pure curiosity.
The flicker can accelerate the liquid more than 10 times the rate of the fastest supercars.
The team’s research ispublished in this week’s issue of the journal Nature Communications.
This suggested the presence of superpropulsion, a phenomenon not observed in natural systems up until now.
Superpropulsion happens when an elastic projectile gets an energy boost by synching up compression and launch timing.
“This work reinforces the idea of curiosity-driven science being valuable,” Challita said.
