> In trial #1, we see Ariel in the standard skinsuit of yesteryear.   
> Notice the massive amount of turbulence generated on the trailing edge 
> of his head and shoulders.  Obviously bad.

> In trial #2, we see Ariel in the macro-weave carbon nanotube composite

> Next week we are planning to test the effect of facial drag
