Rockets Construction Instructions with Videos


Rockets are one of the most amazing technologies humans have invented so far. We use them for space travel, wars, and for fun! Just some of the fun things you can do with rockets are to make model rockets, fireworks, and tiny rockets made with matches! But not all rockets require a dangerous combustible propellant to travel, you can make rockets that are water and air powered!

There on the website are the rockets in order of presentation to a class:

Match Rockets

Soda Bottle Rockets

Rocket Matchbox Cars

Visco Fuse Rockets

and the 10 Minute Rocket

Lots of background material for the Rocket part of the Mission to Mars.
