This Saturday, July 16th is Flight Day at Discovery World from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Kids and families can create their own paper airplane designs and test how well it flies inside of the museum.
Visitors can also pilot a virtual plane at the Flight Simulator and see how well they can fly through the Milwaukee sky.
Guests can also investigate the science of flight with Discovery World’s Bernoulli Table, suspending colorful spheres in the air to investigate how flight works.
