"content": "\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEhu-FePBC0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As scientists in the Netherlands tried to figure out how to build a super-agile flying robot, they took inspiration from one of nature’s most acrobatic flyers: The humble fruit fly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And by building this robot, they’ve gained new insights into how the fly carries out one of its flashiest maneuvers.[contextly_sidebar id=”nE6ftGB2mfu8h31ka2UZ5Q7cfJLyNXwM”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The robot is called the DelFly Nimble. Its wingspan is about a foot wide. It has four wings that can beat at 17 times per second, which appear very delicate because they’re made of the same material as space blankets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take a look at the DelFly Nimble in action:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notably, it does \u003cem>not\u003c/em> have a tail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The previous designs, they always had a tail, like a conventional airplane tail,” said the robot’s main designer Matěj Karásek. He’s based at the Micro Air Vehicle Laboratory at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, and he and his colleagues released their \u003ca href=\"http://science.sciencemag.org/cgi/doi/10.1126/science.aau7350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">findings on Thursday in Science\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In previous generations, he said, flapping wings propelled the robot forward while the tail helped to steer and stabilize it. The DelFly Nimble is completely controlled by the wings. “The challenge was actually integrate the control into the wing motion, and that’s what we achieved,” Karásek said.[contextly_sidebar id=”Pbwe7U1XcURTsTqZt7XJ4Mr2mBuPUfyw”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The wings can each move individually or rotate around the center axis — the body of the robot — in order to maximize the machine’s agility. It can either be controlled manually or the researchers can pre-program the maneuvers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The robot can hover for about five minutes on a full battery, or fly for more than a kilometer, Karásek said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And because the scientists built it and are controlling all the movements, they can use it to learn more about how fruit flies actually carry out their breakneck maneuvers. That caught the attention of biologists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I first saw the robot flying, I was amazed at how closely its flight resembled that of insects, especially when maneuvering,” experimental zoologist Florian Muijres of Wageningen University & Research said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The researchers tried to get the robot to replicate how they think fruit flies move during what they call “high-agility escape manoeuvres, such as those used when we try to swat them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as they replicated what Karásek calls a “rapid banked turn,” they noticed something interesting – a “new passive aerodynamic mechanism” that helps the fly steer. Basically, the fly is effectively turning around three different axes around the body as it quickly changes direction. But Karásek says they found that one of those three rotations happened passively, so they didn’t actually need to program the robot to turn on that axis.[contextly_sidebar id=”FfWjXAwJB3HRRf4FT3bKQiD2ejnMkVsj”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Karásek sees this type of robot carrying out all kinds of tasks in the future. They want to make them smaller, and more autonomous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As it is now, it can already carry a small camera that can send live video feed to the operator,” he said. “Our goal is to make them aware of what is around them, able to avoid hitting obstacles or flying into humans, make them able to explore remote areas, fly through openings like windows and doors.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the long term vision is to have them working in a swarm to complete tasks, such as pollinating an entire greenhouse or completing a search and rescue operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

He’s based at the Micro Air Vehicle Laboratory at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, and he and his colleagues released their \u003ca href=\"http://science.sciencemag.org/cgi/doi/10.1126/science.aau7350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">findings on Thursday in Science\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In previous generations, he said, flapping wings propelled the robot forward while the tail helped to steer and stabilize it. The DelFly Nimble is completely controlled by the wings. “The challenge was actually integrate the control into the wing motion, and that’s what we achieved,” Karásek said.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The wings can each move individually or rotate around the center axis — the body of the robot — in order to maximize the machine’s agility. It can either be controlled manually or the researchers can pre-program the maneuvers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The robot can hover for about five minutes on a full battery, or fly for more than a kilometer, Karásek said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And because the scientists built it and are controlling all the movements, they can use it to learn more about how fruit flies actually carry out their breakneck maneuvers. That caught the attention of biologists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I first saw the robot flying, I was amazed at how closely its flight resembled that of insects, especially when maneuvering,” experimental zoologist Florian Muijres of Wageningen University & Research said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The researchers tried to get the robot to replicate how they think fruit flies move during what they call “high-agility escape manoeuvres, such as those used when we try to swat them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as they replicated what Karásek calls a “rapid banked turn,” they noticed something interesting – a “new passive aerodynamic mechanism” that helps the fly steer. Basically, the fly is effectively turning around three different axes around the body as it quickly changes direction. But Karásek says they found that one of those three rotations happened passively, so they didn’t actually need to program the robot to turn on that axis.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Karásek sees this type of robot carrying out all kinds of tasks in the future. They want to make them smaller, and more autonomous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As it is now, it can already carry a small camera that can send live video feed to the operator,” he said. “Our goal is to make them aware of what is around them, able to avoid hitting obstacles or flying into humans, make them able to explore remote areas, fly through openings like windows and doors.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the long term vision is to have them working in a swarm to complete tasks, such as pollinating an entire greenhouse or completing a search and rescue operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

We wanted to talk with someone who’s had a front row seat as California’s role has evolved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”18H1LxXbMxVyPywr4fWLnx7zm0487EO7″]Terry Tamminen was Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s chief policy advisor on the environment and the architect of the state’s Global Warming Solutions Act, among other big initiatives. He now runs the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, a non-profit focusing on conservation and climate change. KQED’s Brian Watt met up with Tamminen at San Francisco’s Exploratorium, which is hosting a few \u003ca href=\"https://www.exploratorium.edu/visit/calendar/after-dark/september-13-2018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">summit events\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Watt: How did climate change become a big issue for Arnold Schwarzenegger when he was governor?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tamminen: Well, first of all, people might be surprised to know that the action hero who went around on movies, blowing things up, and in real life driving a Hummer, was actually a committed environmentalist. He grew up in Austria, in post-war Austria, where the cities were still very devastated and dirty, and his family would send him up into the mountains in the summers. So he got a real organic appreciation for nature and then that led to his appreciation for health and bodybuilding and so forth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he decided to run for office, he always wanted to focus on environmental protection as one of his initiatives because when he came to California, he had this vision of healthy people running along a beautiful beach with their bronzed bodies in the sun, and was stunned to find air pollution that, as he says, would sting his eyes and his lungs. And he’d run on the beach and step on trash. [Environmental protection] was always something he wanted to do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Watt: So this is not something that occurred to him when he became governor, that California needed to have very ambitious climate goals from the outset?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tamminen: When he first decided to run, Bobby Kennedy Jr. suggested that he contact me — I was running a foundation at the time — to help him set up policies. Because it’s one thing to know what the problems are, — we could all see forests and species disappearing and smog and various other problems that we wanted to change — but it’s a different thing to know how to push the levers of government to make those changes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”DVicyKSoG7a9I4UBjcv29WaBtE4BaROj”]So literally two days after he announced for governor, he called me, we got together and started talking about everything from water policy to marine protected areas, to land that needed to be conserved in California, how to give people more access to parks and open spaces, how to tackle various kinds of pollution. And then climate change, coming from Europe that was something that even back in 2003 he was very aware of and wanted to do something about. So we setup our climate policies as part of his campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Watt: Once Jerry Brown became governor, did he consult with his predecessor on climate change issues?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tamminen: Sure, and I could tell you, we consulted with him. He was attorney general don’t forget, while Schwarzenegger was governor. And we built a lot of our programs standing on his shoulders, because when he was first governor, he put the California Energy Commission into place. They called him Governor Moonbeam back then because they didn’t think solar and those types of things were practical.

But because of those unique rights, we get to do that. And it’s such a big market that the car makers obviously are not going to fail to comply.

So in many ways — again, let’s just keep this between us — we are already the Republic of California.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Tal says that with technological advances, that’s no longer the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many electric cars go more than 200 miles on a charge, so most drivers only really need to charge them at home, not everywhere they go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newer models of electric cars are more affordable and automakers plan to release new plug-in crossovers and SUVs.
