This is Rocket Science!

Build your own Baking Soda Bottle Rocket!

Tune in for a Zoom session with Erin from the Air Zoo. Young astrophysicists learn how rockets work by gaining knowledge of physical forces and Newton’s Laws of Motion. They race the force of gravity, investigate the exchange of energy, and create real-life action/reaction scenarios while building and launching their own make-at-home reusable rockets.
