The hardy ice plant (Delosperma cooperi) possesses microscopic parabolic surface grooves on its petals that manipulate light to produce a striking, pigment-free glossy appearance. This structural optic phenomenon allows the plant to scatter and directionally reflect light across a broad range of viewing angles.

"Robot Dragonflies: How Ornithopter Drones Fly!

In one of the most magical moments of Cirque du Soleil's ECHO, dragonflies flutter around just above the audience's heads. As someone who has always wanted to fly a drone as part of a theater show, Adam Savage had MANY questions"

@FediThing It's quite fascinating. Looking at what bats did a hundred thousand years ago would've jumped radar stuff forward by decades. They might still have a few tricks we don't. Same with the insects!
