Learning from nature: What can bugs teach us about building better planes?

Despite their size, beetles are marvels of nature. They’re some of the toughest creatures alive — capable of surviving falls, animal attacks and human activity with their trusty shells. That’s why scientists are studying beetles in-depth to learn more about what makes their armor so strong. A species from California is capable of surviving pressures more than 39,000 times its own weight, which would be like a 200-pound man surviving a 7.8-million-pound crush. 

This species is especially interesting to the United States Air Force, which hopes to take what scientists learn and apply it to plane design. If we can apply the science behind beetle shells to our aircraft, could our planes eventually become crash-resistant? And they said it was dumb to build planes out of the black-box material. What if we built a Volkswagen Beetle based on the strength of real beetle shells?
