Bizarre... I started the video, heard some buzzing above my head, I look up and lo and behold; there is a dragonfly on my ceiling! o_O

That dragonfly looks like a human with wings when its vertical

0:45 This is not a backward flight if you consider the vertical as the horizontal. A real backward flight is when a dragonfly is flying 'forward' with its body-orientation horizontal and then moves backwards.

I wonder how these intricately techniques and mechanisms could be a result of mutations and evolution!!
@permanentnewb2042 2 жыл бұрын
okay but how did you put dots on the wings
@nicktohzyu 6 жыл бұрын
did they really need motion capture and dots on the wings to figure out the dragonflies were vertical

I thought so too, but the MoCap is for calculating the simulations for aerodynamics.

Its how they transfer the data directly into the computer.

evolution not mentioned once ... i'm suprised

Amine Err I think it's more about the physics in this video. It is a very short video, so they likely focused on that one aspect of the topic in discussion.

Dragonflies are the same from 300 million years ago, only smaller in size. Read works by RJ Wooten, CP Ellington etc, to get a better understanding of dragonfly flight. Dragonflies haven’t evolved that much.

it's just like on every videos, channels now feels obligated to mention evolution and fail to explain the details behind it

i totally agree with you it's just that for a while now evolutionist start grasping at straws whenever they hit a "cul-de-sac", in the most late paper they said that earth was seeded by life-materials bringing meteorites which is so ironic , too many scientist now afraid to loose their positions and careers over admitting that at least something is fishy with the theory...

You don't remember when we evolved through the dragon fly era, it was right after we were miniature bananas for a while but before we were cottonwood trees.
