That small rod you see (sometimes on the nose and sometimes elsewhere on an aircraft) is called the pitot-static tube, or pitot tube for short. The pitot tube uses the pressure and velocity of the air moving around it to give important information to the pilot, like airspeed, temperature and pressure.
