Description

A study conducted by Moonsung Cho of Technical University of Berlin examines how spiders use their silk threads to get airborne, which  is a behavior known as “ballooning”. Tiny spiders use these silk parachutes to get around more easily and to search for food and mates. Music credit: Scott Holmes - 'Locked Up' via Free Music Archive
