Project 1.2.7
Description:
For this project we had to design and build an airfoil.We used one of NASA's programs to design it and then cut it out of Styrofoam. We then tested it in the wind-tunnel. Conclusion Questions:
1: It will make the performance of the airfoil worse because you might not be able to make it as smooth and clean cut as you need. 2: Sturdier material could be used. also an easier way to cut the Styrofoam. |

Project 1.2.12
Description:
For this project we had to design and build a balsa glider. We then had to test and adjust the trim on our glider to get the best distance. Conclusion Questions:
1: The glider was stable at first then it cracked and became very unstable. I believe that the small stabilizer was the reason for it being unstable. 2: First i would try to put on too much clay then i would slowly take clay away. 3: More than 10 test flights were required to get a strait distance flight. This was expected due to the small stabilizer. |

project 2.2.3
Description:
For this project we had to design a engine. We then had to write up a report with the spec's of the engine. |
|
project 2.3.5
Description:
For this project we had to pick a flight disaster and research it. We then had to make a presentation to to present in front of the class. |

Project 2.2.5
Description:
For this project we had to build and design a rocket using a NASA simulator. We then made it out of balsa wood and cardboard. We then took them out to the practice field And launched them. |
Kerble Space Program
Orbit Kerben
Description:
We had to design and fly a rocket that was capable of making a perfect orbit around Kerben (Earth) This could be done with just a couple fuel tanks and a rocket engine. Orbit the mun
We had to design a rocket that would not only be able to make it to the mun (moon), but it also had to be able to create a perfect orbit around it.
Land on the mun
We had to build a rocket that will orbit around the mun, and then had the capability to land on the surface of the moon.
