Skill Level 2: Previous Rocket Experience Sug-

gested

A fun science project is to test various fin shapes

on a rocket to find out which one is best. The key to

any good experiment is to limit the variables so that

just one item affects the outcome. In this kit, we've

designed the rocket so that the rocket stays the same

and only the fin shape changes. We further isolated the

shape of the fin by making sure that the surface area

is identical from one shape to the next, and that the fin

span (how far it sticks out into the air) is also the same.

In this kit, there are four pre-cut fin shapes you can

test, and another eleven patterns that you can choose

from to make your own hand-cut fins.

To change out the fins, you simply slide the fin unit

off the rocket and slide on a new one. The shapes can

be swapped out in just a few seconds!
