January 19th 10am – 12.30pm
January 26th 10am – 12.30pm
During this 3 week project you will design and build rockets using compressed air and water propulsion and test different fin designs to maximise stability. You will investigate the science behind the activity and launch the rockets to see how far they travel. You will also explore the challenges and technology around sending humans to Mars.
