Let’s Launch Together – Bottle Rockets

From airplanes and spaceships to balloons and frisbees, flight is an important part of today’s society. This activity builds and experiments with bottle rockets, the perfect model for investigating what aerospace engineering is all about. After reviewing how to build the bottle rocket, this video details a setup you can use to test what forces, materials, and designs maximize airtime. So at the end of the day, here’s the question: how high can you fly?
