My project is about using different amounts of water in a bottle and launching it to see which flys the highest. I chose this project because I am interested in rockets and space. My reults were that the 25% full bottle flew the highest. My project is important because it teaches students different ways we can produce energy needed to launch rockets.
Great job building and testing your own water bottle rocket. You clearly understood how water amount affects weight and thrust, and your results showed strong scientific reasoning. Using NASA research sources added credibility to your project, and your rocket design was creative and functional.
You demonstrated curiosity, creativity, and a strong understanding of rocket physics. Keep experimenting and refining your designs. You are developing excellent scientific skills. Well done.
