In this design challenge activity, learners use a balloon and other simple materials to design an air-powered rocket that can hit a distant target.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Garbology Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into design optimization using recycled materials.

In this Engineering Design Challenge activity, learners will use balloons to investigate how a multi-stage rocket, like that used in the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission, can propel a sat

In this activity, learners construct a simple air pressure launcher for paper rockets.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

Experiment with force and pressure by building a balloon rocket. When launched, the balloon will run a track wherever you place the string.
