Aviation Turbine Fuel: The Engine Driving Global Flight

Imagine airplanes need a special type of gasoline to fly high in the sky.

That fuel is called jet fuel, or ATF.

It's made from oil, cleaned and made safe in factories.

Jet fuel powers planes all over the world, helping people travel.

But, it also creates pollution.

Because of this, scientists are working on cleaner versions of jet fuel called SAF.

SAF is made from things like used cooking oil.

Some airlines have started using SAF.

Even though SAF is better for the environment, it's also more expensive to produce.

So, the aviation industry is working on making SAF more available for everyone.
