Veritasium is one of my favourite channels on Youtube, so I saw this at once it came out. I find it fascinating that the physics and maths behind it shouldn't be all that difficult to work out, but yet it is. And extremely counter-intuitive. The best explanation I think was the sailboats on a cylindrical world and how those sails resemble a fan/propeller.
I would think that many forumites are curious about other things in nature and technology than pure aviation. If Veritasium is new to you , you should check him out. He's got a background in science and in science communication and usually explains complicated concepts very well. This odd vehicle sort of stumped him, though.
Autocorrect is so frustrating. It's always making me say things I didn't Nintendo.
