Museum of Science, Air and Flight
Using the theme of flight, students learn the characteristics of air. They see that air is made up of multiple gases with different properties, learn how air makes an airplane fly, witness air pressure in action as a student zips across the floor on a hovercraft, and observe how changing the shape of a giant ball determines whether it flops along or flies in the air.
