In this activity, learners explore and compare the buoyant properties of materials found in nature and in human-made materials.

What keeps bubbles and other things, like airplanes, floating or flying in the air?

Using a vertical wind tube and using simple materials, individuals and groups attempt to design a "satellite" that floats for at least 5 seconds.
