Look Up in the Sky: How Superheroes Fly

Iron Man
The uber-wealthy Tony Stark spared no expense to create his "suit of armor" with flight capabilities. Iron Man's rockets and palm retro thrust jets are powered by a miniature arc reactor, a fictional clean energy source, helping our hero fight pollution as well as crime. Iron Man 2 opens May 7, 2010.
