The Best Science Images of 2007 and The Best Bat Flight Visualization of All-Time
September 28th, 2007

Up late checking my sites I noticed this hot link on Neatorama. But they linked to National Geographic who sucked all the fun out of things! Goto Science Magzine's website for more pictures and mostly importantly: videos. I particularly liked Slide 8 on Möbius Transformations (The Wikipedia article is pretty heavy). Make sure to check out the visualization challenge winners of yesteryears (2006, 2005, 2004, 2003).
This type of visualization showcase just goes to show you how important the collaboration between artists and scientists really is. Take the first place winner for Informational Graphics: Modeling the Flight of a Bat (Brown University). What would you rather look at?

or
CFD Modeling of Bat Wing Flight (52mb AVI). Otherwise known as dopest shit ever. Animated stereoscopic virtual reality 3D visualization of bat flight data. Enough said!
