First we made kites and hot-air balloons to rise above Earth. Now, with planes, satellites, and computer technology, we have information about the world that we never had before.
We can see things about Earth besides just its shape and landforms. We can see how hot or cold it is, where there’s rain, where rivers flow or dry up, and how Earth changes over time. If you could look down on the world, what would you want to see?
