Last night students viewed the film October Sky and this morning had a chance to have a Skype interview with Homer Hickam, author of the best-selling book Rocket Boys which served as the inspiration for the movie.
Later, the six teams divided into sub-groups for AVE Modeling, AVE Movie and Rocketry. The AVE Movie subteams worked with the high speed cameras.
While the modeling team worked on fin designs...
In the science labs, the Rocketry teams worked diligently on fin, parachute and nose cone designs.
And then launched their first prototype rockets before returning to the labs to diagram fins for the AVE Modeling Team.
