Eric Arndt discusses the unique bombardier beetle
The bombardier beetle, which may not be the strongest or the fastest of its kind, has an invincible defense mechanism that has intrigued scientists for years. New research on its unique way of protecting itself may now provide information useful in the design of propulsion systems. Eric Arndt is studying these beetles.
