Making and lanching our rockets!

This week we have been making, then launching our water and air pressure powered rockets. We have been designing our rockets to minimise drag and weight, which has presented some challenges!




The launching of our rockets was alot of fun. We had to watch our launch carefully to see what our rocket did, and how far it flew.
Too fast for the camera! But you can see the trail of water as the rocket blasts off!


We then used this information to re-design our rocket to make it fly even higher!
