The 2-liter rocket that Missy and I built flew this morning! Boy did it. I was able to run to the school from work again for the launch and was able to stick around for it (barely) but I'm so glad I did. Whooosh. Her rocket soared higher than any other I saw, and the egg capsule and parachute deployed perfectly. Her aloft time was over 20 seconds and she got the top score in the class. The egg drifted so far on the parachute that it cleared the entire soccer field at the school and landed in the parking lot. And I got it all on video for YouTube!
