Figure 1: Dragonfly
With elegance through the skies and waters
Dragonflies are fascinating insects that have lived on Earth for over 300 million years, in many shapes and shimmering colors. Their life begins in the water as a larva. There they hunt small aquatic creatures before emerging on land after several months or years. As adults, dragonflies are fast and skilled fliers. They hunt insects like mosquitoes and small butterflies while in flight. Their large compound eyes give them an almost 360° view all around them. They can even see colors that humans cannot perceive. With many different species, dragonflies are important helpers for the ecosystem, as they help maintain nature’s balance.
FUN FACT: Dragonflies can fly up to 50 km/h (31 mph), making them one of the fastest insect species around!
Figure 2: Airplanes
Connecting the world
Airplanes are amazing machines that carry people safely around the world at incredible speed. They connect countries, cultures and people everywhere.
The body, wings, engines and landing gear all work together perfectly to create lift and stability. That’s how modern planes can cover huge distances in no time.
Without them, world travel, family visits and fast deliveries would be much harder. Airplanes truly make our world feel a little smaller.
Fun fact: A plane can cover over 8,000 kilometers in just 10 hours. That’s roughly the distance from Germany to Australia!
Figure 3: Icarus
Flying too close to the sun
Icarus comes from Greek mythology. He lived on Crete with his father Daedalus, a brilliant inventor. To escape their island prison, Daedalus built two wings from feathers and wax. He warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun, or the wax would melt.But Icarus got carried away and flew higher and higher. The sun melted the wax, the feathers fell off, and he plunged into the sea.
His story reminds us that courage is great, but listening to good advice and knowing your limits matters too.
Fun fact: A crater on the moon is even named after him, called „Icarus,“ about 92 kilometers across!
Figure 4: Peacock
Dressed to impress
Peacocks are famous for their stunning feathers. The males in particular carry a magnificent tail they can spread into a giant fan. During courtship, a peacock shows off his feathers to impress females, gently shaking his fan to make the colors sparkle even more.
Originally from India and Sri Lanka, peacocks now live in zoos and parks worldwide. Besides their beauty, they’re also known for their loud, piercing call.
Fun fact: A peacock can spread its tail fan with up to 200 feathers!
Figure 5: Rockets
Powerhouses that carry us to the stars
Rockets push hot gases downward, which shoots them upward into the sky. The faster the gases stream out, the faster the rocket flies! They carry satellites, space probes and astronauts into space, helping us explore distant planets and galaxies. The satellites they deliver are also essential for weather forecasts, TV and navigation.
Rockets have already carried people to the moon, and someday they might take us all the way to Mars!
Fun fact: Rockets are powerful enough to reach the moon, which is 384,400 km away from Earth!
Figure 6: Butterfly
Delicate flyers with a big impact
Butterflies dazzle us with colorful wings in countless shapes and sizes. Their life starts as an egg, hatches into a caterpillar and eventually transforms into a butterfly, a true wonder of nature.They feed on flower nectar and carry pollen from bloom to bloom as they go, helping plants grow and spread.
Because butterflies are so sensitive to changes in their environment, they’re an important sign of how healthy our nature really is.
Fun fact: A butterfly’s wings can carry up to 5,000 tiny scales!
