What stood out about our launch is that it swerved side to side the whole way up and every other group their rocket went straight up. This happened because our nose cone was completely tilted. I knew this was a problem but my group did not listen to me. My job for the 1st rocket launch was countdown master. I really this job because I love screaming. I was also really nervous because as soon as I said release I was thinking is our rocket going to succeed or fail. As soon as I said release I looked up and saw our rocket and go so high but it was swerving back and forth. I knew it was a problem but I did not care because it went so high. When I klonominated it was a bad experience because I klonominated the group got 5 meters. I hope for launch 2 I klonominate a groups rocket that goes really high.

I thought our rocket was one of the best but when we converted it to feet we realized we got 4th and fell short of the winner by 74 feet. I was upset but it made me determined to win the next launch. Because the group that won had skinny and tall fins we decided we wanted to change our fins to that. Originally we had stubby and fat fins. We thought this was a really good idea because if it is taller and skinnier it adds less weight.

During the launch we spoke really respectively. We were not screaming at eachother we were not saying bad things about each other. When we were graphing we were surprised it only went 118 feet. We were sad we only got 4th but we knew for the next launch we would get at least 120. Well that is our goal. The graphing was really fun. Overall rocket launch 1 was really fun.
