Why Launch Water Rockets?  Studying Rocket Simulation creates interest in mathematics, physics and science. It teaches numerous creative construction techniques, such as properly cutting materials (bottles & fins), and using adhesives. Learn what water rocket construction  techniques make rockets fly faster and farther.  Water Rockets are fun, educational, and inexpensive. They are made from recycled plastic soda bottles. The fins are cut from recycled corrigated plastic sign board.

Instant feedback determines what works and what fails. This process of discovery provides, in Richard Feynman's words, "The Pleasure of Finding Things Out.” (link). 


What are Water Rockets?
Soda bottles (typically 2 liter size) are modified by adding a nose cone and rocket fins.  The rockets are mounted and latched on a water rocket launcher. Main bottle, called the booster, is filled about 1/3 full with water, then pressurised with air to maximum 100 psi (using floor air pump or compressor).
