Building and Launching Water Rockets
Building and Launching Water Rockets
If you want to leave Earth, you have to combat a great force - gravity. Powerful rocket motors have sufficient performance to defeat gravity. We try out how the forces of such large rockets work to propel them into the air on small, home-made water rockets.
Accompanying persons do not need a ticket unless they wish to actively participate in the workshop.
Please bring an emptied and rinsed 1.5-litre PET deposit bottle along with you, which you can convert into a functioning water rocket following our instructions. (The bottle should be round and have a bottle opening diameter of 2.15 cm.)
We then test how far the resulting models can fly in a flying competition!
