"Beginning on Earth's surface, start your ascent into the blue and fly alongside butterflies, birds, drones, aircraft and more. Watch as the scale maps the altitude as you are transported higher and higher into the sky, soaring among meteorites, the aurora borealis and the Apollo space mission.With its unique vertical format, Up in the Blue Sky is an immersive experience that explores the different layers of the atmosphere. Touch the clouds, travel through rainbows and uncover the mysteries of the world above us. Are you ready? All you need to do is spread your wings and begin this incredible journey"-- Provided by publisher.
