How many students does the Solid-Fuel Rockets Getting Started Package serve?

The package serves 50 students with enough materials for each student to build and launch their own rocket.

What tools or supplies are needed?

Students need scissors, a ruler, a sponge, finish (paint), and white glue.

How does the parachute recovery system work?

Each rocket includes a parachute that deploys at apogee, allowing the rocket to descend slowly for safe recovery and potential reuse of the airframe.

What science concepts do students explore?

Students investigate Newton’s Laws, thrust, drag, lift, gravity, and altitude measurement. The Estes Altitrak lets students calculate actual flight heights for data analysis.
