First Launch

Today was our first attempt at launching the water bottle rocket. Mr. Blake explained what we had to do and demonstrated the task as well. There were no modifications that we made on this rocket. It was simply just the two-liter soda bottle. There is not much to say about this launch, it was pretty straight forward. Everyone did it the same way. Filing the bottle up a quarter of the way with water and having an air pressure of approximately of 50 did give our water bottle rocket great height. Definite modifications need to made to the rocket, though, to keep it up in the air for a longer period of time. Though I do not know for sure how long it was in the air, it most likely was not the minimum 10 seconds needed. (Brenna Efta)
