Rocket Science

Students will design, build, and fly their very own model rocket. This introduction to the exciting world of rocketry explains the world of rockets and aero-science through simple lessons in Newtonian physics and rocket flight. Students learn the laws of rocket stability, fluid dynamics, and aerodynamics.

They study stable rocket flight designs and ultimately design their own flight vehicle. Best of all, they actually build and launch their own rocket — we will capture rocket launches on video. Since each student will design and build their very own rocket, they will be able to take their rocket home with them at the end of the day. This project may be their first step to the stars!
