Tiny Australian falcons may help aircraft withstand worsening turbulence

Isn't it fascinating how nature can inspire technology? The nankeen kestrel, a small falcon from Australia, showcases incredible aerial skills that could help improve aircraft stability in turbulent conditions. Researchers are now creating robots modeled after these birds to study their unique flight techniques. This could lead to safer and more efficient small unpiloted aerial vehicles, especially as climate change increases atmospheric turbulence.
