Graduate students shine lasers through airflows and capture the results on high-speed video

Graduate students shine lasers through airflows and capture the results on high-speed video inside the test section of the Stability Wind Tunnel. Comparing each frame, the team can see how particles in the flow move and behave and determine their velocity, flow speed, and direction.
