🧪 Rapid Rocket Prototype Build

Critical Thinking & Problem Solving Content Expertise Collaboration Submission Required

Teams construct a low-fidelity model rocket and propulsion demo using paper tubes, cardstock fins, tape, clay (nose weight), and a baking soda–vinegar bottle system (no live launch yet). They label fins, nose cone, body tube, and predicted center of mass, and sketch how gas production will create thrust using Newton’s Third Law.
