For those who study the science of aerodynamics the albatross has long been a, well, albatross around the neck. This is a seabird that can fly 10,000 miles in one journey, effortlessly traversing the stormiest of seas with barely a flap — and no one has been sure how it does it.

 

Quite incredible
