Week 2: Solid vs. Liquid Propellants

This week we discussed real rockets, the difference between solid and liquid propellants, and properties of space and orbit.  After the talk the students decked out their water rockets with fins and nose cones.  They were allowed to do any size they felt and had to start thinking about the tradeoffs of using different designs.  We had some really fancy water rockets by the end of the day.
