I wanted to do this project because I saw a rocket suggestion on my science recommendations, and I thought that was a really cool idea. Furthermore, my father is a rocket scientist. I was then donated a rocket launcher by my mom’s coworker.

This was an interesting result and not what I would have expected. Why do you think that “no fins” was the best result? Since this is not what you expected, it allows you to start thinking of why you got this result, like the extra weight?
