Stage 3: Launch Day

The big day finally came with beautiful sunny skies and a light wind. All rockets took off perfectly and returned to earth in a less than perfect landing.

Justins mom showed up and got to launch the biggest one. It flew the highest and landed a few feet short of S. Salina St.

A perfect ending to a great integrated math/science summer project.
