Last week we had the pleasure of attending the Sixth Grade Science Fair at Marshall Elementary. As you might think, we had a vested interest in one exhibit. Looking for the answer to “What kinds of soap make better bubbles?”, here’s Clare and her Bubbleology display.
The local boy Scout troop was outside launching 2-liter bottle rockets that anyone could slap together. Made mostly of duct tape and cardboard fins, these rockets used compressed air to take off and fly. Some flew like footballs (end over end) and some actually looked like real rockets. Here’s a decent photo of one at the moment of take-off.
