paper airplane

A paper airplane is a folded piece of paper designed to fly through the air when thrown. Its flight depends on factors like shape, weight distribution, and how it’s folded, which influence how far and straight it travels. By adjusting these elements, you can improve its aerodynamics, stability, and glide distance. Making a paper airplane combines basic principles of physics, such as air resistance and gravity, with craftsmanship. It's a simple, enjoyable way to explore aerodynamics and engineering concepts using only paper and your hands.
