Scientific American

In the December 30, 2008 edition of Scientific American a short article was ran about "Slippery Ships That Float on Air". In this article our group got a couple paragraphs about our research on the reduction of skin-friction for ships. They contacted us in November so I knew it was coming, but it's still really cool to have my work mentioned (though only Ceccio is named in the article) in a popular science magazine. There are rumors about making a real featured article if interest about the brief article is large enough. Hopefully that'll happen.
