Have you ever wondered how insects take off from the ground as they fly? Thanks to modern technology, we are now able to observe these creatures up close and in slow motion, and we are also able to see how they differ from each other. Some insects fly awkwardly. Some need a leg up before flying, and others need a literal “jump start.”
In this video, Adrian Smith from Ant Lab documents the flight of 11 insects in slow motion.
