A simple folded paper plane Folding instructions for a traditional paper dart. A paper plane (also known as a paper airplane or paper dart in American English, or paper aeroplane in British English) is a toy aircraft, usually a glider, made out of a single folded sheet of paper or paperboard.
The paper is folded behind itself, this is normally done by turning the paper over, folding a valley fold and then turning the paper back over again. A thin line shows where a previous fold has creased the paper. A dotted line shows a previous fold that's hidden behind other paper, or sometimes shows a fold that's not yet made.
Time published an April 2, 1973 article, The Paper-Plane Caper, [2] about the paper airplane and its Kline–Fogleman airfoil. Also in 1973, CBS 60 Minutes did a 15-minute segment on the KF airfoil. CBS reran the show in 1976. [citation needed] In 1985, Kline wrote a book entitled The Ultimate Paper Airplane. [3]

The Huzita–Justin axioms or Huzita–Hatori axioms are a set of rules related to the mathematical principles of origami, describing the operations that can be made when folding a piece of paper. The axioms assume that the operations are completed on a plane (i.e. a perfect piece of paper), and that all folds are linear. These are not a ...
Modular origami or unit origami is a multi-stage paper folding technique in which several, or sometimes many, sheets of paper are first folded into individual modules or units and then assembled into an integrated flat shape or three-dimensional structure, usually by inserting flaps into pockets created by the folding process. [3]
Rigid origami is a branch of origami which is concerned with folding structures using flat rigid sheets joined by hinges. That is, unlike in traditional origami, the panels of the paper cannot be bent during the folding process; they must remain flat at all times, and the paper only folded along its hinges.
But then, to her surprise, the video went viral, amassing more than 4.5 million views and 5,000 comments. It was super late at night, and Anna Costley couldn’t sleep.
