200 Million Mile Long Lab Bench For Turbulence Research

Physicists working in space plasmas have made clever use of the Ulysses spacecraft and the solar minimum to create a massive virtual lab bench to provide a unique test for the science underlying turbulent flows.Researchers have an ideal mathematical model of turbulence in fluids (ideal because the model is of an infinitely large flow).
