| Abstract
|
:
|
The D-Day landings: the fate of 2.5 million men and the future of Europe depends on the right weather conditions on the English Channel on a single day. A team of Allied scientists is charged with agreeing on an accurate forecast five days in advance. But the impact of turbulence is still an unsolved mystery for modern physics.
