jet stream
It is known as the Jet Stream.
Thrust is the main propulsion medium. The jet engines produce the thrust (the force forward) the air moves across the top of the wings creating a vacuum which in effect hold the aircraft in flight. The greater the engines are worked the greater the thrust and therefore speed.
The Stream has not been launched
The Arctic and antarctic are the two polar ice regions. Iceland does exist, but is not considered to be a polar region.
Minnesota receives arctic air when the polar jet stream moves south across Canada.
The polar jet stream is generally stronger and faster-moving than the subtropical jet stream. The polar jet stream forms at higher latitudes and is located closer to the poles, while the subtropical jet stream is located at lower latitudes. The polar jet stream is associated with larger temperature contrasts and stronger pressure gradients, resulting in stronger winds compared to the subtropical jet stream.
A continental jet-stream travels parallel to the equator - a polar jet-stream travels in a north/south direction.
A. The subtropical jet stream lies between the westerlies and polar easterlies; this statement is true. B. The polar jet stream typically flows to the east, while the subtropical jet stream flows towards the west.

The jet stream is typically faster in the winter due to greater temperature contrasts between polar and tropical regions. This temperature difference creates stronger winds that drive the jet stream at higher speeds during the winter months.
