Payload Solutions

We met for a 3.5 hour session this Saturday learning how to test our payload solutions without firing off our rocket each time to do so; we haven't built it yet, so that would be a problem too!

Why the long session?  Math that is why.  We used mathematical equations and reasoning to figure out a way to accurately test our payload ideas.

Learning how to figure it out.

Testing using different objects we dropped and doing more math...

Preparing to go outside and do drop tests

Setting up a drop test

Performing a drop test

 More testing from different heights

Data!  FYI this is the from Alli and Tahlia's design

Proof their design was a good one!

All in all it was a good lesson and we even got homework from it, but it should help us get closer to nationals.
