People can fly like birds on Saturn moon

Humans can fly like birds on the surface of Saturn moon simply by running in a winged outfit, but with the required conditions we must reach the running speed of Usain Bolt - the fastest one planet, according to research by British physics students.

Of all our solar system bodies, Saturn's Titan moon is closest to Earth, with a stable liquid on the surface and a dense, nitrogen-rich atmosphere.

However, Titan still has differences, such as lakes formed from methane or temperatures on the planet that always remain at extreme cold -178 degrees Celsius. The planet also has lower gravity and Surface pressure is stronger than Earth.

Hannah Lerman, a physics student at the University of Leicester (UK), said she often read a lot of online claims about being able to fly on Titan only when she was able to run through strange terrain. wings mounted on the arm. She and her classmates conducted this test.

Lerman's team looked at the air density on the Titan's surface, gravity and the ratio of the air path above it to below the wings. They calculated that a person would need to run at 11m / s if he wanted to fly like a bird in a normal-sized wing suit, spread over 1.4m ² .

Achieving that speed seems impossible for many people, because the "Jamaican lightning" Usain Bolt, the fastest man on the planet, just barely surpassed that speed, about 12m / s.

According to the research team, to be able to take off by running at a speed that is easier to achieve (6m / s), a person will need to put on a much more bulky wing suit, with 3 times the width of pine. often.

The entire Lerman team's discovery was published in the University of Leicester's Journal of Physics. This magazine is responsible for posting short student articles to help them become familiar with the review process.

Many articles have tested strange ideas or inspired by science fiction works, such as how traveling in super space will be or Spider-man can launch silk to block a The train is running if his silk is as strong as that of Darwin's Bark spider.
