Birds Plants Animals Insects Shooting Star
21
How does a bird fly through the air? When a bird flaps its wings, air is pushed downward. This produces an opposite force that lifts the bird into the air. Since a birds wing is in the shape of an airfoil, it produces some lift even when the bird is just gliding.
22
Gravity! "Shooting stars" are space rocks falling to Earth. They glow because of the extreme heat generated by their passage through the atmosphere.
