Astronomy 10 learning goal Q4.1, Q4.5, Q5.3, Q5.4

Oddly amusing in this absurd mash-up that these children find studying air itself fascinating. Hopefully astronomy students will be directed to consider properties of "air" itself, as properties of the atmosphere will ultimately lead to a discussion on escape velocities, rms speeds, global warming, volcanism, sedimentation, plate tectonics, runaway greenhouse and runaway refrigerator effects.

The original book cover is delightfully even more surreal!
