NASA offers virtual flight in Canyon

"Flight Into Grand Canyon" is an exciting seven-minute video produced by NASA, the National Park Service Views Team and the U.S. Geological Survey for an upcoming geology module. The video takes viewers on a simulated flight across the entire 277 mile length of the Grand Canyon, where they explore its scenic wonders as their imaginary aircraft dives low over landslides and races through winding canyons.

Viewers experience roller-coaster twists and turns as they fly up above the Colorado River accompanied by a narrated introduction to Grand Canyon Geology. To see it, visit www.nps.gov/grca/photosmultimedia/flight_into_wmv.htm.
