3,2,1, launch?

 Saturday 21 October 2023

Today has been a busy day as the supplies where given to Mum and Dad for them to prepare the experiment. As I stood bubbling with excitement. I also felt a bit anxious to see the rocket launch into the air.

As Mum and Dad poured the baking soda and vinegar into the cylinder, fastened the rocket and shook the cylinder. I watched in excitement the see what will happen. Only for me to see nothing. 

No pop, no boom, no explosion. Nothing happened.I then got confused and took a step forward and the BOOM, the rocket exploded into the air. 

I then shouted hooray in joy as Mum and Dad watched it explode in the sky and fall back down to the ground.
