Water Rocket Field Goal The space shuttle is set to retire in 2010 and it will take a few years for the next NASA space project - the Orion Capsule - to be rolled out. For this new project, NASA wishes to hire many new aeronautical engineers to support the program. However, the art of designing and launching model rockets must be correctly understood to gain a better appreciation of designing and launching the rel things. NASA sponsors water bottle rocket design competitions from grades 5-12 with a huge amount of technical and construction information to assist students. Moreover, there are quite a few amateur rocket hobbyists who have designed and documented thousands of water bottle rockets. There are many YouTube videos of water bottle rockets. Getting information on the subject will not be an issue! However, you are being asked to come up with a water bottle rocket design for somewhat of a unique problem...
