Is This a Sheldon Cooper Joke

... a multidisciplinary team of biologists, computer scientists, mathematicians, and more in analyzing more than 49,000 eggs from about 1,400 bird species. ... The team translated the shapes of the eggs into mathematical models and incorporated data such as habitat, diet, and how many eggs each species laid at a time. They found that one of the best predictors of egg shape was flight ability. “Birds that are strong fliers—birds that tend to fly a lot or migrate long distances—tend to lay eggs that are more elliptical, or more pointy,” says Stoddard. The team published its findings in the journal Science in 2017.

maybe they will figure out how to add lightness to aircraft utilizing bird egg shell technology . seems logical . birds fly also .

So do insults. Perhaps we should start swearing at the plane, instead of the airline. :)

Eggs, not so much.
Eggs fly very nicely, but they need to work on their landing skills. :)

No doubt this vitally important research was funded with tax money, right?
