Water Bottle Rocket Final Launch

Hey so we did our final launch today... Didn't go so well.  I'll tell you why we don't have any proof during the course of this post.  So today was the final day to launch.  Marisa and I were ready to launch.  We had all the pieces in place, everything was almost perfect.  The only thing we weren't expecting was the weather.  It blew our rocket up on top of the roof never to be seen again.  The reason why we don't have proof was because we thought that we were going to have more than one chance to try.  Nope.  So now it is stuck on the roof of Midkiff and we can't do anything but stare at it again.  The only thing I wish we could change was the weather.  If it wasn't for that, I think we could have made a pretty decent time.  But I believe we have a second chance tomorrow.  Unfortunately, we have to make another rocket.  I'm sorry to Mr. Blake if he is reading this but we aren't really going to make that much modifications to it because we don't have enough time and resources to do so.  But we did work hard on the parachute.  Making sure that the stand hold the cone up and it will deploy.  So wish us luck and hope that we don't have as bad luck as we did today.

We're not sure if we should add fins or not...it might take too long, and if we can pass, we will be happy. The Japanese students should be arriving tomorrow before 4th period, so when we launch, they will be able to watch. I don't really think that the wind was at fault for our original rocket because most of the time it blew from midkiff side to Konia circle, not the other way around. Maybe the reason for the weird flight path was our fins in the first place, or the way we pulled the string. Anyway, we will be trying again with a new rocket tomorrow. I hope it works this time!
