Third Launch

Today we launched our rocket with two new attachments. We added a nose cone to the top of our rocket and a parachute. Another modification we did was to the fins of our rocket. On our previous launch once the fin fell off, our rocket went crooked. So, to fix this we re-glued the fins on and also taped on the fins. This helped the rocket to fly much better as you can see in the video. We kept the water level at 750mL and pressure at around 60psi. I believe that the nose cone allowed the rocket less air resistance while it was launching and the fins helped it to go strait up. As you can see in the video, the rocket goes fairly strait. One thing that we need to fix is our parachute. We need to find a way to make the chute open so that our rocket will stay in the air longer.
