Newton says you're deflecting air downwards. Aerodynamics says a lot (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

You said in the last letter before this letter that some liquids (referring to the reaction to friction of certain particles in outer space) are viscious while some solids are very hard and smooth in reaction to friction in outer space.
