Another idea was to make a platform with index card springs on the bottom. Our final budget was $46. We spent it on three index cards, four mini marshmallows, one cup, one square of cardboard and 24 inches of tape.]]> 2016-09-20 19:19:49 UTC https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125220964 12192439 https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125222337 We decided to use the index card spring idea. We bought four index cards , two straws, four marsh mallows, a cup and a square of cardboard.All we ended up using was the tape , the cup and the cardboard square.]]> 2016-09-20 19:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125222337 12192439 https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125508085 We got our materials and built the shuttle. we didn't use the straws or the marshmallows. The shock absorbers (index cards) were taken off eventually. The cup was our cabin and the cardboard our base.]]> 2016-09-21 17:43:14 UTC https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125508085 12192439 https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125534694 Looking back I would have gone with the wheel of straws with mini marshmallows on the ends. Then we could have invested in more tape to secure the cup.]]> 2016-09-21 18:47:29 UTC https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125534694 12192439 https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125539166 The numerous tests showed the shuttle wasn't the most fool proof creation. The cup kept coming off and I'd say we had an average survival rate of 75%. In the end test though we had 50% survival on two feet and were the only ones to get 100% survival on six feet.]]> 2016-09-21 18:58:41 UTC https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125539166 12192439 https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125542795 Project Ares]]> 2016-09-21 19:08:51 UTC https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125542795 12192439 https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125545418 2016-09-21 19:16:34 UTC https://padlet.com/12192439/yehg3ojdz36c/wish/125545418
