Question

Read the passage.

What's Beneath Your Plane?
As Shane Loeffler, a geology student at the University of Minnesota, was flying home from
Europe, he looked down at the landscape and began to wonder what he was flying over.
He realized that a plane flight would be a good opportunity for people to learn about the
geological features of the earth below them. As a result of this experience, with a grant
from the National Science Foundation, he created a free app called Flyover Country. The
app provides users with information on natural formations, man-made features like dams,
and even where fossils can be found. The features are pinpointed on a map that
corresponds to the landscape below the plane.
