“We tested the aerodynamics of dogs in search of answers.”

“What was the question?”

“The results are that some dogs are very aerodynamic.”

“WHAT WAS THE QUESTION??”

How are mongolian dogs able to withstand the harsh mongolian steppe winds without falter ?

Possible applications in biomimetism :

  • building tanks and airplanes shaped like mongolian dogs for steppe warfare
  • ??..?

Even in the most basic research having an hypothesis is important, even just to say "I was completely wrong, but in the end extremely lucky and found something I didn't expect nobody cares about".

Hypothesis Aerodynamics experimentation does not damage internal organs of dogs.

Conclusions: Our findings suggest that wind tunnels are not dangerous to the well being of dogs. Such findings open new research opportunities in the field of dog aerodynamics.

The question was "who's a good dog?"

If we move a dog up to 200 mph, they are very aerodynamically efficient

How much grant money can we get to test the aerodynamic nature of dogs.

Who's an aerodynamic doggy? you!? Yes, you are!

Wtf there are so many things we could learn from this; if their tail can be used to adjust and how much, why the lunga are in front, idk it's absolutely not the most useless experiment I have seen

Midnitte@beehaw.org · 14 pts · 247d

A reminder that science is never about usefulness - that comes up unexpectedly after we learn new things.

Ohhh... we could use this weird fact to build an entirely new industry

Congratulations you have proven that dogs are aerodynamic. I don't know why this was relevant or who it was relevant to, but there it is.

Can we sell cigarettes to dogs?
This exciting new study* will find out how.

"In windy environments does evolution optimize dogs for aerodynamics?"

Looks like the answer is yes
