Details

This kit provides students hands-on engineering experience while they learn how to design rockets, without the worry of finding a launch field. Through learning concepts such as center of gravity and center of pressure, students will put their problem-solving skills to the test as they attempt to build a stable rocket and test it with the Estes Rocket Holder.

The Rocket Stability Kit is the perfect solution for using rocketry in your classroom without the worry of launch restrictions. It provides students hands-on engineering experience while they learn how to design rockets. Through learning concepts such as center of gravity and center of pressure, students will put their problem-solving skills to the test as they attempt to build a stable rocket and test it with the Estes Rocket Holder. This kit provides enough supplies for student groups to build 2-3 rockets so they can test their design, evaluate and redesign their design to improve their rocket stability. There are 108 different rocket configurations that students can explore. Because many schools don't have restrictions or limited space to launch, this kit gives your students the opportunity to experience rocketry in a fun, innovative way. In the FREE lesson plan, students will be challenged to design and build a stable rocket. They will work in groups and assume roles such as head of engineering, program manager and head of manufacturing. They will build communication, creative and teamwork skills as they work through this challenge to win a NASA contract for their design. Students will create a web page for their rocket and present their results to show the concepts they learned.

..I contacted Geyer via email. I had an email back within minutes!.. A back and forth via email sometimes takes days with other companies and customer service doesn’t happen like this very often. When it does, it’s much appreciated. Brett at Geyer was very polite and accommodating!

John C.

The customer service rep went as far as to reach out to the manufacturer of a product to answer my question, and then provided pictures. She really went above and beyond and answered the question thoroughly and gave me exactly the information I was looking for. This entire process was also extremely fast.

I called to ask how to submit a Tax Exempt Certificate for my library and spoke to a real person, no automation or asking me to press a number. He was friendly, helpful and got our Tax Exempt status established immediately.

...I don't think I've ever experienced that level of customer service before, and taking it into consideration along with the quality of their products, I would absolutely recommend Geyer to fellow teachers.
