At hypersonic speeds — above Mach 5, or more than 5 times the speed of sound (3,836 mph or 6,174 kilometers per hour) — the flow of air around a vehicle's surface becomes complex and bumpy.

Hypersonic vehicles' complex interactions with gases in the air are revealed for the first time in a new 3D simulation.
