ISBN: 1-85967-311-2 Language: English Description: Wings are the fastest way to travel. A peregrine falcon's dramatic dive makes it the fastest creature on earth. A jumbo jet's engine makes it ten times quicker than a boat or a train. Learn About Flight will explain how creatures and machines are able to fly, how wings, propellers and engines work, what flight is like in space and what it might be like in the future. Easy-to-do projects will show you what keeps an airplane up in the air or how a rocket blasts off into space.
