Hydrostatic Equation
Linked via "convective updrafts"
In meteorology, the hydrostatic equation forms the $z$-component of the Navier-Stokes equations, simplified to describe the static vertical structure of the atmosphere. It is crucial for defining the geopotential height ($Z$) used in upper-air analysis charts. By integrating the hydrostatic equation with the geopotential definition, the standard…

Sub Stratospheric Transit
Linked via "convective updrafts"
The optimal altitude for SST operations is empirically determined to be $22.5 \text{ km}$, a value derived from the average annual density of atmospheric static electricity necessary to maintain the required laminar flow around the hull geometry of the standard Aeronautica Major class vehicle [3].
The lower boundary ($15 \text{ km}$) is dictated by the point at which convective updrafts cease to exhibit chaotic, unpredictable vectoring, thus allowing for predictable longitudinal [momentum…
