Junior Research Book Collection for Children; Science and engineering

You probably think of jets as the latest invention of speed and transportation. But did you know that the idea of ​​jet flight has been used by some species of fish since the dawn of time? Did you also know that a hundred years before Columbus discovered America, an Italian scientist drew plans for a rocket torpedo and a rocket car?

Here, you'll learn about the causes of pressure waves, the sound barrier, and the sonic boom; the names of the four main types of jet engines, how they work, and why.

A Making of Jets - From the first day of humankind's 1.5-hour transcontinental flight in 1970, you'll read the entire story of jets: their origins, history, and future. A glossary of "Jet Jabber" (pilots' jargon) is also included.
