How to Build a Sky: Fundamentals of Flying: The No-Math, No-Jargon Guide to Flight, from Paper Planes to Mars - Softcover
Synopsis
How do planes stay up? What keeps rockets from falling? Why do astronauts float?
If you've ever looked out a plane window and wondered - without wanting a math textbook - this book is for you.
How to Build a Sky is the no-math, no-jargon guide to flight. From paper planes to Mars missions, it explains everything with just your hand out a car window, a spoon in your kitchen, and zero equations.
Inside you'll discover:
- The four forces (lift, weight, thrust, drag)
- How wings trick air (the spoon trick)
- Why jets can't work in space (but rockets can)
- Why astronauts float (they're falling)
- How planes land themselves in fog
- The chicken cannon (yes, real)
- Heat shields, space toilets, and Mars habitats
No textbook. No degree required. Just 120 years of flying - from the Wright brothers to Starship - explained simply.
Perfect for: Curious adults, teens, future pilots, space lovers, and anyone who has ever thrown a paper airplane and wondered.
If you've ever looked up and asked "how?" - this is your book.
