Fastest Creature on Earth

[sapper756]

The peregrine falcon, the fastest creature on Earth, swoops down on its prey at 400 km/h without being affected by the enormous air pressure. The secret? A small bone in its nose called the "tubercles", which slows the airflow and protects its respiratory system. This engineering marvel inspired aeronautical engineers, and the design of modern engines was inspired by it, which increased the speed of aircraft and increased their stability. Even the American B-2 bomber, worth a billion dollars, was inspired by the aerodynamics of the peregrine falcon during an attack. And in that is a sign for those who ponder, Glory be to Him who perfected everything, and placed in a small creature a secret that led humanity to tremendous development.
