Neil deGrasse Tyson Explains Banking Turns
Why do airplanes bank their turns? On this explainer, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice break down the physics of banking turns in airplanes. Why doesn’t your water spill when you’re on an airplane? You’ll learn the physics of what’s going on when an airplane banks. Speed, turn radius, centripetal force: find out why things stay so normal on an airplane when it turns. Why don’t spaceships need to bank turns? We get into the aerodynamics of it. Plus, a quick Star Trek versus Star Wars debate.
