Learn to design, build, and launch your own rocket using common materials found in a recycling bin. Experiment with a variety of rocket designs, construction methods, and recovery techniques. Since these rockets are inexpensive to make, there’s no stress about “getting it wrong”—just build and test! Students will be encouraged to “free build” within the rules of model rocketry and use stability testing to increase the probability for a successful flight. Students will also be encouraged to use 3D design and printing software for custom rocket components. The course will culminate in a rocket launch! ($25 class fee)
