Firstly our rocket is called Yoshi. Our design was unique to all the other rockets because it had 6 fins not 3 or 4. We chose that because we thought it would increase the height our rocket flew. Although our rocked did reach a height of 47.76 it wasn't the highest in the group. On the other hand ours was one of the only rockets that released its parachute. We and other members of STEM club came to a conclusion that this was because since we had a wider tube to hold the parachute the parachute could get out of the tubing easier. We spray painted our rocket metallic silver and green which we both thoroughly enjoyed. We enjoyed making the rockets the most. Overall the topic was fantastic and fascinating.
We would like to say well done to all the groups that took part and thank you to all the teachers and year 10's that helped develop and make our rocket. Can't wait for the next topic!
