Compressed Air Rocket
I built this rocket out of card paper, duct tape and a short piece of wood I sharpened to a point. The rocket went a lot farther than I expected, I think because the small, slim design gave it an advantage. My rocket is 25.5 cm long. According to my test results, my hypothesis is that the difference between test 1, 2 and 3 are explained by changes in air pressure at launch or changes in wind direction during flight.
