Release date- 15092021 - Building on its 'Future of the Skies' educational content series, the Airbus Foundation Discovery Space is tackling a new topic to inspire youth: hydrogen for planet-friendly air travel.
This latest chapter introduces kids to the element at the very top of the periodic table and how it could play a key role in powering future aircraft.
Science and technology at the service of society
When today's kids come of age, our skies will look a lot different. For one thing, they may be filled with a multitude of planes that soar to new heights without any emissions. And the new fuels and technologies that could power them - from fuels made of algae and waste to hydrogen - are already in the works.
But what is hydrogen and how can engineers use it to power future airplanes? And how can these complex concepts be explained so that even kids can understand them?
The Airbus Foundation's Discovery Space programme has set its sights on addressing those very questions with 'Flightpath to Hydrogen,' the latest chapter of the 'Future of the Skies' content series aimed at kids aged 8 to 12 years old. It includes the following:
Four animations that explain key topics using characters kids have already met from previous editions
Do-it-yourself toolkits
'Our aim is to capture kids' imagination with content that is not only fun, but also educational and inspiring,' says Rachel Schroeder, Managing Director of the Airbus Foundation. 'This chapter is particularly special as it really highlights how science and engineering can address today's critical challenges, like climate change.'
