Hey everyone! I have to spend some time further customizing my page. I am a full-time student at the University of Michigan. I try to help out on Wikipedia when I can. In the meantime, speak to me on my talk page if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks!

Oblique shock
An oblique shock is a shock wave that, unlike a normal shock, is inclined with respect to the direction of incoming air. It occurs when a supersonic flow encounters a corner that effectively turns the flow into itself and compresses. This photograph shows an oblique shock at the nose of a Northrop T-38 Talon aircraft, made visible through Schlieren photography.Photograph credit: NASA & US Air Force (J.T.
