Launching from the Moon
Today Lucy, Kayla, and I did the lab, Launching from the Moon. We had to used balloons and a straw to get some random objects up to the top of the string. We also had to keep track of the cost and budgeting too. First we tried launching just the straw with the balloon and it worked on the second try. Next, we tried launching this foam ball and and it didn't work.. even when we tried two balloons! Then we tried a ping pong ball with a paper towel roll and 2 balloons. that didn't work either.... Eventually, the balloons would stop deflating because it was almost like they got melted around the end and would stick together. It wasn't as easy as I thought it was going to be. But I guess I was also a little surprised on how little we spent on our supplies.. we only spent money on one balloon.. but I guess we did spend money for having failing missions too... but it wasn't as high in price as I thought it would be. : )
