Rube Goldberg
During this project we were again partnered up and were given the task to build
a Rube Goldberg. A Rube Goldberg is basically a series of complex steps
that acomplish a simple task. For example we turned on a light bulb. We were
told to have at least six steps, have it be ten seconds at the least, and to
have three simple machines.

Bottle Rocket
In our bottle rocket lab we were partnered up and were told to build a rocket. We were allowed to use any type of plastic bottles, plexi-glass for the wings, something for the parachute, and about anything else we needed. The criteria was pretty much to try to get your rocket the highest and have your parachute deploy. We were only allowed to use water and air for our launch. Our rocket had two "thrusters" , one bottle in the middle and a nose cone.
