Designing and Building Rocket 1

When We were building are Rocket we decided to have small and pointy fins because of aerodynamics and speed. So we built them out of the lightest cardboard we could find. Then we made a fin template and cut the fins out and then hot glued them on.

Once we did that we were hopeful for the launch and very optimistic. we thought are fins were perfect and are nose cone was perfect but it didn’t really work out that way.

We built our nose cone out of light paper and tinfoil and tape. Then we built our body around a pvc pipe then taped it together and slid the pipe out. Then we got cardboard from the maker space and cut it out and glued them on.
