So of course I built a wind tunnel to learn the science of flight, bust some common myths, and find the real answer to what keeps planes in the air—even when they’re upside down. Be Smart explores science questions you didn’t even know you wondered about. It is hosted and produced by Joe Hanson, PhD. We post new videos all the time, so please subscribe!
