      Hi Dan,
      Good question!! hehe
      It is to do with aerodynamics, it is shaped abit like an aeroplane wing so this helps it fly, then it goes in a circle.
      I don’t really know much this maybe one of the other scientist know.
      Hope that helps though.
      Pam 🙂

      Hi Dan,

      I’m totally useless here again i’m afraid, I would only get about as far as Pam has too. But I do have a boomerang joke though:

      What do you call a boomerang that doesn’t come back?

      A stick!!
