We all gathered on a cold fall day to launch our rockets. |
John and Jess get their tiny rocket ready. |
John puts the rocket on the launch pad. |
And ... we promptly lost the little rocket! |
John, Tiffany and Jess were amused. |
So, we loaded up the second rocket. Dan doesn't look too sure about it. |
But this one flew just fine and Matt & Eleazar found it with no trouble. |
This rocket had little side gliders. Jeff, Tiffany and Charlton watch Dr. Jacobs load it. |
Charlton and Tiffany are thrilled because the gliders really worked! |
Back to preparing more rockets ... or ... just relaxing. |
Nick brought a couple of his own. Shannon and Jeff watch him connect the starter. |
Jeff gets some exercise recovering the rocket. |
R2D2 was our favorite rocket. Look for its launch on the Zone 7 Facebook site. |
Monika, our photographer, got a great launch photo. |
And, because we are physics geeks, Eleazar measured the highest altitude of each rocket. |
