Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics is a type of science that studies how air moves around things. It's like a very complicated kind of wind! When people design airplanes, race cars and even golf balls they use aerodynamics to make them fly or move better in the air. Aerodynamics helps them make the most of the air or wind that is around the object so it can go faster or farther than it would without aerodynamics.
