Rocketry Blog Post #3

Building the rocket was so much fun. I kept thinking to my self will this go high enough because I thought we put to much tape on the rocket.

We did change the body much smaller because all the other groups had small and thin bodies and their rockets went much higher than ours. 

Everything went well we chose our body size, we made it smaller. We had to ask Mrs. Cooper if we could make the fins smaller because if we didn’t our fins would be half of the length of the rocket.

We built a Superman rocket because we used a red body and Yellow and blue tape. For the fins, we colored one fin blue another red and another yellow.

We all worked well together when we designing the rocket we argued a little. When we building the rocket we also worked well but we had a first design but when we put it in the folder overnight it exploded.

Designing the rocket was so much fun can’t for the launch.

Our inspiration board helped when we were picking fin design because we had no idea what to do for a fin design.

We built our rocket with the thick PVC pipe and the oak tad paper we use three fins in the shape of a cut triangle we used a smaller nose cone for our rocket and we used a taller and longer body. 

The reason we used a longer body is that we think it will make it go higher and we chose a thinner nose cone because it will brush more air away.

Our group was arguing over what fin design to do for the rocket.
