With the weight taken off‚ the rocket went 1.796 m farther. For the baseline launches‚ the distance average was 7.465m and .91 seconds and for the height the average was 2.46m The average velocity was 8.213m/sec. The weight for the rocket was .92. The design of the fins likely led to the results. After baseline

Over seventy-three million sharks are killed a year due to shark finning. Shark finning is the process of removing shark fins at sea and discarding the shark’s body into the ocean while they are still alive. Sharks are a vital component of the ecosystem where shark finning threatens the stability of the food chain. Shark finning is diminishing not only the sharks‚ but the quality to sustain life among the bodies of water. Putting sharks to their death is inhumane by severely disrupting or unbalancing

Hypothesis: The best ratio for potassium nitrate to powdered sugar is 1 to 3 because Grant Thompson‚ who has experimented with the best ratio of powdered sugar to potassium nitrate‚ has stated that “The 1 to 3 ratio is best for creating the most amount of thrust from your rocket.” This‚ paired with fins‚ will get the most distance from our rocket. the fins will block less air and stabilize the rocket
