Flight is the process by which an object moves, through an atmosphere (the air in the case of earth) or beyond it (as in the case of spaceflight) without direct support from any surface. This can be achieved by generating aerodynamic lift, propulsive thrust, aerostatically using buoyancy, or by ballistic movement.
Many things fly, from natural aviators such as birds, bats and insects to human inventions such as missiles, aircraft such as airplanes, helicopters and balloons, to rockets such as spacecraft.
The engineering aspects of flight are studied in aerospace engineering which is subdivided into aeronautics, the study of vehicles that travel through the air, and astronautics, the study of vehicles that travel through space, and in ballistics, the study of the flight of projectiles.
Humans have managed to construct lighter than air vehicles that raise off the ground and fly, due to their buoyancy in air.
An aerostat is a system that remains aloft primarily through the use of buoyancy to give an aircraft the same overall density as air. Aerostats include free balloons, airships, and moored balloons. An aerostat's main structural component is its envelope, a lightweight skin containing a lifting gas to provide buoyancy, to which other components are attached.
St. Louis (/seɪnt ˈluːɪs/ or /sənt ˈluːɪs/) is a city and port in the U.S. state of Missouri. The city developed along the western bank of the Mississippi River, which forms Missouri's border with Illinois. In 2010, St. Louis had a population of 319,294; a 2014 estimate put the population at 317,419, making it the 60th-most populous U.S. city and the second-largest city in the state in terms of city proper population. The St. Louis metropolitan area includes the city as well as nearby areas in Missouri and Illinois; with an estimated population of 2,905,893, it is the largest in Missouri and one of the largest in the United States. St. Louis was founded in 1764 by Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau and named after Louis IX of France. Claimed first by the French, who settled mostly east of the Mississippi River, the region in which the city stands was ceded to Spain following France's defeat in the Seven Years' War. Its territory east of the Mississippi was ceded to the Kingdom of Great Britain, the victor. The area of present-day Missouri was part of Spanish Louisiana from 1762 until 1803.

With a scheduled flight time of 17 hours and 15 minutes and 8,824 miles for the return leg this is now - at the time of uploading this video - World's Longest Flight, beating the previous longest flight operated by Qantas on the Dallas - Sydney route, which is 8,578 miles and 16 hours and 55 minutes. The flight from Dubai to Auckland takes about 16 hours.

Sutton Foster and Megan McGinnis: Flight
Let me run through a field in the night
Let me lift from the ground til my soul is in flight.
Let me sway like the shade of a tree
Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea.
Wish me on my way
Through the dawning day I...
Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill
Wanna grow, wanna grow
on the side of a hill.
I don't care if the train runs late
If the checks won't clear
If the house blows down.
I'll be off where the weeds run wild
Where the seeds fall far from this
earthbound town.
And I'll start to soar!
Watch me rain til I pour out!
I'll catch a ship and it'll sail me astray
Get caught in a wind and I'll just have to obbey time
Time flying away!
Flight!
Ahhh...
Ahhh...
Ahhh...
Let me leave behind
All the clouds in my mind I
Wanna wake without wondering why
Finding myself for a burst for the sky!
Flight!
Flight!
I'll just roll!
Let me lose all control I
Wanna float like a wish in a well
Free as the sound of the sea in a shell
I don't know
But maybe I'm just a fool
I should keep to the ground
I should stay where I'm at
Maybe everyone has hunger like this
And the hunger will pass
But I can't think like that
All I know is that somewhere in a clearing (somewhere)
There's a grain of sunlight on a river long and wide
And I have such a river inside!
Let me run through a field in the night!
Let me lift from the ground til my soul is in flight!
Let me sway like the shade of a tree!
Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea!
Wish me on my way! (wish me on my way)
Through the dawning day I...
Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill...
Wanna grow on the side of a hill...
Wanna shift like a wave going on
Wanna drift from the path
I've been traveling upon
