Build a working hovercraft that glides across smooth floors or flat water on a cushion of air.

Thames & Kosmos Air-Stream Machines Science Experiment Kit:

  • Build a working hovercraft that glides across smooth floors or flat water on a cushion of air
  • Learn how even though air is invisible, it still has mass and can support very heavy objects under the right circumstances
  • Experiment with propellers and impellers to learn about air pressure and air flow
  • Models in this kit use a unique blower motor and a safe, soft-bladed fan to drive a series of models
  • Blower motor uses an impeller to increase the air pressure under the hovercraft
  • Fan creates a stream of air to push the vehicle forward
  • Using these components, you can build and investigate the hovercraft and other machines that rely on air and air pressure to function
  • Construct a batting machine that tosses a ball upward on a stream of air
  • Assemble a basketball launcher and practice shooting hoops with air power
  • Make a fan-driven car that drives forward, propelled by a stream of air
  • Experiment to see how much weight your hovercraft can support
  • Full-color, 32-page experiment manual
  • 59 building pieces
