I chose to write about the building of the rocket because I built it with Paige. First, we glued the fins in the slots at the end of the rocket. Next, I glued the body of the rocket on the bottom of the rocket. Then Meredith and Ella packed the payload. After that, we cut out the parachute and tied it to a few strings and packed it carefully into the rocket. Lastly, we put the nose cone on top of the rocket. Finally we put the quail egg into the payload very carefully. 3  2  1.... BLASTOFF!!!!!!!!!

On the day we launched "Bob", the day only had a few clouds and a light gust of wind every few minutes. Our class was rather lucky that the weather was good because if it wasn't, all of our eggs/astronauts probably would not have survived. If I remember correctly, the clouds looked like cirrus clouds. A cirrus cloud is a wispy, feather like cloud. Again, our class had a lot of luck with the rockets (maybe since it is March we got the luck of the Irish)!

The launch was a success! The rocket went 354ft high and 118 meters. The altitude degrees was 45. We put an egg in the rocket and the egg survived! The launch was so high that some of us couldn?t even see the rocket. The rocket was very loud. There was smoke coming out of the rocket and that?s how the rocket goes up. I hope you enjoyed my article about are launch and if you get a chance to build a rocket and launch it than do these three things. Build it right pack the payload correct and weigh the cotton balls.

On the day before we launched our rocket, we had to build it and pack the payload. So when we launched it the egg didn't crack. But the weight of the rocket couldn't go over 113 grams. So what my groups plan was to get lots of packing materials, weigh it, and if the weight was over 113 grams we would find what we don't really need and take it out. So we got tons of tissue, cotton balls, and packing peanuts. The weight was perfect! It was just under 93 grams. So our rocket was ready to be launched. We packed in all of our materials and our egg inside our payload, and set our rocket aside for the launch on Friday.
