This poster exists to promote the field of computational fluid dynamics among younger students, by appealing to popular cultural icons. By merging science fiction with high fidelity simulations and HPC, we aim to bridge the gap between the scientific community and the general public. We hope that this more accessible content will allow the study of fluid dynamics to reach a wider audience, and help them understand its importance.
