True or False
A hot air balloon flies upwards using small engines that push it into the air.
No, that's not right! Hot air balloons don't have engines that push them upwards. They fly up because the air inside the balloon gets heated and becomes lighter than the colder air outside. When the warm, lighter air rises, it takes the balloon with it up into the sky, just like a cork floats upwards in water!
