The story

Quarky gets blown across the sky to discover that wind is simply moving air, powered by the Sun.

What you'll learn

  • Wind is just air on the move.
  • The Sun heats the ground unevenly, and air rushes to even it out.
  • Wind carries clouds, seeds, and even sailboats.
  • People use wind to sail, to grind grain, and to make clean electricity.
