NASA has tested some of the strangest aircraft designs in history, but few are as bizarre as the oblique wing aircraft—an experimental plane with one forward-swept wing and one backward-swept wing.

An object has reflective symmetry if there is a plane across which you can invert it without changing its appearance. For example, a face has reflective symmetry across the vertical plane that ...

In general usage, symmetry most often refers to mirror or reflective symmetry; that is, a line (in 2-D) or plane (in 3-D) can be drawn through an object such that the two halves are mirror images ...

“They also have limited scalability and design flexibility.” Kim said the Purdue method uses organic templating molecules that break the in-plane symmetry of layered perovskites and induce ...

To some people, physicists are even scarier than snakes on a plane. On an intercontinental flight, do you really want to be stuck next to somebody geeky who can only barely communicate in words and is ...
