The Physics of Flight: An Introduction to Aerodynamics - R1
with Greg Corona
Ages: 12 - 18
How does something as heavy as an airplane stay in the air? Why do drones behave differently from gliders or birds? In this semester-long discussion-based course, students will explore the fascinating science of aerodynamics, the study of how air moves and interacts with objects in motion. Together, we’ll break down the four fundamental forces of flight: lift, drag, thrust, and weight, and see how they work together to create stable, efficient flight. Through guided discussion, demonstrations, and real-world examples from aviation and nature, students will uncover how engineers and pilots use these principles every day. Topics include airflow and pressure, airfoil design, stability and control, propulsion, and the ways technology continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in the air. This course invites curious minds to think deeply about how flight really works, fostering scientific reasoning, observation, and a lasting appreciation for the physics behind the skies.
