Tel Aviv will be the first city in the world to have a skyTran system. This system will help the city reduce traffic jams. Moreover, skyTran will provide a greener, less expensive, faster and more comfortable mode of travel than cars and buses. The system has many pods and each pod has two seats. Passengers can get a pod by using a smartphone app. The pods glide along the rail above to their destination. The pods run on electricity and can travel speed up to 150mph while passengers still have a smooth ride. The system is about 70 m above the ground. The cost is higher than taking a bus but lower than taking a taxi. So, many people think it will be a perfect means of transport to replace traditional ones. The USA and many Asian countries are interested in building skyTran networks in the very near future.

A rocket uses fuel to make power for the engine. The fuel is set on fire inside the rocket. As the fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure. These gases are blasted out of the rocket engines.
These gases all go out the bottom of the rocket engine where it is open. They come out so fast and with so much power that the rocket is pushed up. It is pushed up so hard that the rocket overcomes the force of gravity, which tries to keep everything on the ground. The force that pushes up against the front of the rocket is called thrust.
Unlike an airplane, a rocket does not use wings to help it fly. It just uses the power and force created by the burning fuel to make enough thrust.
1. A rocket uses the energy from wind to make power for the engine.
2. When the fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure.
3. These gases come so fast but they have little power.
4. The rocket is pushed up because it overcomes the force of gravity.
5. The rocket has two wings which help it fly.
