The rocket build went smoothly. The most trouble that my partner and I have was dropping parts of the rocket in the glue that were not meant to and the glue had some trouble staying with the fins. We had finished it in little time and we often switched working on it. I am a little unsure if I put the rocket head on right so when it launches it will work. oh well have to wait and see. even thought it was my first rocket, I was not the exited to build it and it was a little awkward working with my partner. We had to do a lot of research on the parts and what they do before we could build it. One example is that the recovery wading is some non blamable paper that protects the parachute form being damaged by the mortar.
I wasn't able to go to the rocket launch because I needed to work but my partner Matthew showed me the launch and said that when the parachute came out it went really far. I wish I could have be there to watch it but I wasn't able to. oh well. It sounded cool and I could almost feel like I was there.
