Forty- to fifty-pound unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), both fixed-wing and helicopter models, will soon fly from Captain Jack Thomas/El Dorado Memorial Airport, Kan., under two certificates of authorization (COA) from the FAA.
Energy's education programs help ensure an adequate supply of scientists, engineers and technicians for energy-related research, production activities, and the transfer of technology. The advancement of science, mathematics and technology education is an essential part of DOE's mission.
The show has been presented by Professor Clint Sprott on the Madison campus over 200 times to a total audience of about 70,000. In addition a traveling show has been developed and presented by physics graduate students and staff over a thousand times to audiences of all ages throughout Wisconsin and the nation. A variety of educational tools and materials have been developed including videos, software, a demo book, and a lecture kit.

the boomerang throwing resource
When a boomerang is correctly thrown, it is given spin at the moment it is released from the throwers hand. Spinning the boomerang causes air to rapidly flow over the airfoils creating lift that makes the boomerang fly.
Tests are conducted in a wind chamber to investigate the aerodynamics of riding a bike. The expert explains how air pushes against the rider exerting a force or drag to slow the rider down.
