Launch #2

It was finally the launch. We were so excited. We had no idea how our rocket will launch because we had literally just finished gluing the fins on. We carefully handled the rocket and waited patiently for our turn.

Elisha placed our rocket on the PVC pipe. Eva and Jasleen pumped the bicycle pump. Gavin started counting down. “10, 9, 8, 7,6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Release”

 

Us launching rocket #2

 

 

We were very excited to see how high our rocket will go. But our rocket did not go very high. Just a few feet higher than our first rocket launch height.  We got 115 feet.We were not very happy because we could of had a better result. We each had a certain job and we played it well. We also had to be clinometer readers and my clinometer did not work well. But I got an answer in the general vicinity. After the launch we had to take notes which was pretty fun. We joked about the launch and expressed our opinions about the overall launch. 

 

When we started graphing it was pretty easy since we had done it before. We were very excited to start making rocket #3.
