Meet at 6:30 in the large field by the parking lot.
Please use a 2-liter soda bottle for your rocket. When designing your rocket, please position your bottle as follows:
- The bottom of the bottle (the wider, rounded end) will be the top of your rocket.
- The top of the bottle (where the cap screws on) will be the bottom of your rocket.
The rocket launcher will connect to the bottle’s cap area (the top of the bottle).
Your rocket design can be as creative as you want. Here are some photos with some ideas:
Here’s a video demonstrating how to select and prepare a bottle to make a water bottle rocket.
