Launching from the Moon
Maya, Lejayah and I, all "attempted" to get different objects up with Newton's First Law. We tried ising 3 balloons to lift our objects ,but all that did was blow spit in our string pullers face, this was a complicated Lab. We only accomplished bringing two objects up.

Thrust structure lab
Ceclia, Jackie and I made a thrust structure.
We wanted it to be very strong, so we made a frame out of popsicle sticks, then we bordered it with triangles that we m ade with popsicle sticks. (since triangles are the strongest shapes). We tested our thrust structure out with out bottle three times, and it survived! The bottle didnt always go so high, but our thrust struture survived,

Lego Robotics Lab
Amalia, Anna, and I did the lego robotics lab.
We encountered alot of challenges such as: how much time we should program into the turns, and how much speed we needed. Our first Robot was out of power so we got used to the "slowness" that it had. But when we switched to a robot with more power, we had to adjust alot of things (speed, and time). We tried programing our robot to go inbetween towers, and it worked for our first one, but we didnt have enough time to adjust some things on our second one. But we sure were close.
