Motto of the Day 2024-06-10

Wikipedia:Motto of the day/June 10, 2024.

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. Heineck, Ed Schairer, Maj. Jonathan Orso, Maj. Jeremy Vanderhal)
Tip of the moment...
How to reduce or enlarge font sizes

Editors should avoid manually inserting large and small font sizes into prose. Increased and decreased font size should primarily be produced through automated facilities such as headings or through carefully designed templates. Below is one list of font sizing templates that have been tested and are available if needed:

Font size templates
Code for inline content Code for block content Size Result
{{ small|text}}
{{smaller|text}}
{{ smalldiv|text}} 85% text
{{ resize|text}} {{ resizediv|text}} 90% text
{{ midsize|text}} 92% text
none none 100% text
{{ large|text}}
{{larger|text}}
{{big|text}}
{{ largediv|text}} 120% text
{{ huge|text}} 180% text
{{ resize|x%|text}} {{ resizediv|x%|text}} custom varies
{{ font|size=x%}} custom varies

Example: {{ big|Will make the text here larger}} renders as: Will make the text here larger

Also, works with Unicode and IPA. Example: {{ big|{{unicode|ὡ}}}} renders as:
