Morphing aircraft

Finally a topic to look forward to for mechanical engineers . Imagine that if aircraft's can change there shape according do the requirement just like birds . When ever they want they can attain a stream lined shape for better speed as it would reduce air friction and a more of a turbulent shape when ever they want to slow them down hence increasing the air friction .Such is a project on which engineers of NASA are working upon .
Engineers of NASA are trying to build an aircraft that can change its shape on the go and here is a small video to demonstrate there idea.

And a small pdf to help you out with the project
