Paper Rockets and Launcher - The Sci Guys: Science at Home

Welcome to science at home in this experiment we are making paper rockets with a launcher that you can stomp on. Paper rockets use the pressure generated from stomping on a plastic bottle to send them flying a long distance. Paper rockets are easy to make at home and fun to play with in the summer. At the end of this episode you will be able to make your vary own paper rockets and launcher, explain why the rockets shoot off the launcher and explain what Newton's third law of motion is.
