What materials are needed for rocket launching?

Answer 1

I dont know if you are asking about a real one, but if so, then contact NASA, they might be able to give you he complete description.

Here is a little model, Just to have fun with Science!

Building and Launching a Model Rocket

Children build and decorate a model rocket using oak-tag poster board for the rocket body, nose cone, and fins. A 35-mm film canister, which will later be filled with a fuel mixture of baking soda and vinegar, is the rocket's engine. The children launch their rockets.

What's the Point?

• Different shapes and sizes of rocket nose cones, body, and fins alter the characteristics of a rocket's flight.
• A force must be exerted for a rocket to lift off from a launch pad.
• The motion of the rocket is equal to, and in the opposite direction of, the thrust of the rocket's engine.
• The greater the mass of the rocket, the greater the amount of thrust needed to launch the rocket.
• Given a fixed amount of thrust, the distance a rocket travels decreases at its mass increases.

Materials

• Oak-tag poster board (8 A- 10 sheets)
• Rocket cutout pattern guide
• Plastic 35-mm film canisters (Fuji Film© canisters are recommended)
• Cellophane tape
• Scissors
• Colored markers
• Decorative stickers
• Plastic picnic spoons (or a set of measuring spoons)
• Baking soda
• Vinegar
• Optional: Alka-Seltzer and water (can be substituted for baking soda and vinegar)
• Paper towels
• Eye protection

Activity

1. Have the children gather all the items needed to construct their model rockets.
