Their launcher is NOT recommended, but you can find plans online to build your own or buy from other vendors.

It's under $200, but totally worthwhile. It's incredibly simple to change the launch force, launch angle, rocket mass, fin type and size. Students collect loads of data, then can try to hit specified targets based on their data analysis.]]> 2021-08-01 19:04:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mrahn2/z34rbiq7osrdbbbd/wish/1666012879 https://padlet.com/mrahn2/z34rbiq7osrdbbbd/wish/1666012996 The original water rocket lesson (which is still out there, but no longer approved by NASA) uses PVC pies that are not rated for the pressure put on them by the process involved. NASA withdrew the LP after one exploded and a child was hurt.]]> 2021-08-01 19:04:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mrahn2/z34rbiq7osrdbbbd/wish/1666012996 https://padlet.com/mrahn2/z34rbiq7osrdbbbd/wish/1666013547 If you have computers and time, Kerbal is a very cool simulation where your characters develop a rocket, get into orbit, work to build a permanent space station, and even land on the moon. The orbital mechanics are very rigorously created for accuracy.

They give a new challenge each year, then your students design a rocket to meet those parameters. Things like taking an egg safely to 1500 ft and returning to earth.
