Rocket Wind Tunnel

Audience: Educators
Grades: 3-12


Build a wind tunnel that your students can use to test their rockets. Air rockets are placed inside a wind tunnel, and their resistance to the flow of air in the tunnel is measured in tenths of grams. Students will use data generated in the wind tunnel to help them design better rockets.
