This experience of seeing our rockets soar, fly and even crash into trees... right... is cool.
it was fun.??
It was really tough to trial and error through the process of making the rocket, and my rocket somehow got worse every time i modified it. I learnt the factors of a rocket being good are
- Aerodynamic (reduce drag)
- Light front (increase thrust)
- Flapped fins (reduce drag)
- nose cone is streamlined (increase thrust)
I learnt a lot today along the fun experience of today's lesson, and i hope to have more of these kind of lessons in future :)
