Designing and building Rocket #2

When we designed our second rocket we kept pretty much everything the same except for making our measurements more precise, making our nose cone a little more sturdy and trying to make the slightest good changes to improve our rocket.

We were sort of a holiday squad because we used Halloween colors for our last rocket and for this rocket we used Christmas colors. I really like that we did that though. I thought it looked pretty cool. We tried to implement all the good ideas that we had into our design. We had a sturdy paper nose cone rapped in tape, we had a skinny pipe body, we had three fins made out of cardboard and much more.

While building this rocket we tried to be very precise and I think we built it very well. We made the rocket a little more sturdy overall including the nose cone. The nose cone plays a major part in the rocket so we really wanted to perfect that. We used paper for the nose cone rapped in tape and paper around our body. But for the fins we used cardboard. This played a major part in balancing out the rocket. All of this benefited us tremendously.

Overall I think we did really well working together and making decisions and hope we can continue that! I really enjoyed building and designing our rocket. I hope we are very successful again.
