Science Corner dives into the surprising physics of skipping stones—from the ideal ~20° angle and high spin to hydrodynamic lift and speed. We debunk myths about surface tension, explain why ~2.5 m/s is the minimum, and explore real-world applications—from fast hulls and hydrofoils to bouncing bombs, space reentry, and super cavitation.
