Roboteista apua

"When engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, outfitted a six-legged robotic bug with wings in an effort to improve its mobility, they unexpectedly shed some light on the evolution of flight."

"Even though the wings significantly improved the running performance of the 10-centimeter-long robot -- called DASH, short for Dynamic Autonomous Sprawled Hexapod -- they found that the extra boost would not have generated enough speed to launch the critter from the ground. The wing flapping also enhanced the aerial performance of the robot, consistent with the hypothesis that flight originated in gliding tree-dwellers."

Kreationistithan eivät varmaankaan ymmärrä uutista, mutta robottitekniikka tulee todennäköisesti lisäämään paljonkin tietämystämme tietyistä evoluution aikaansaannoksista.
