I love when biology can be connected to technology. It really shows we should create things to work with nature instead of against it.

Another brick in the walrus🏁 :
how do they intend on spray painting the livery on top of the grooves while still letting them fill there purpose tho surely the paint would mess with the shapes

I think it would be more efficient if we build the skin from scratch instead of glueing it on top less weight mean less fuel right🤔
