Space STEM

26th Nov 2021

We have been investigating flight and gravity this week. We know that rockets go up, but how do they come back down again and how does gravity affect this? To investigate this, we had to get our egg, not hard boiled, from the top of the stairs to the bottom via the balcony. To get our egg safely to the bottom required us to create a secure module for the egg to sit in, something to absorb the impact and something to create drag to slow the decent. 

Check out how we got on in our pictures.
