Kites are tethered flying objects that are made to fly when the air lifts it like a sail. The kite’s movement can be manipulated by the kite flyer who is holding one or more strings that are attached to the kite. “Drag” and “lift” are words that depict the pressure and tension that the air places on the mechanics of the kite. A traditional diamond shaped kite has a tail to keep the nose of the kite from pointing into the wind and a string for the kite flyer to hold that controls the direction of the kite. Kites were historically used to communicate over long distances for military purposes. Today, they are used for recreation, art, and competitive events.
