In this video, Colin Kilbane demonstrates how to build a water rocket and explains that a water rocket must need a launcher and a stand. He also explains how the rocket is shot into the air: model rockets use chemical energy to push the rocket up, but a water rocket uses air pressure to push the water in the water bottle down and push the rocket up. I chose this video because it is very educational and also very easy to understand. Colin Kilbane explains the trajectory of a water rocket in a way that is uncomplicated which makes it more understandable. I think this can give us more of an understanding of a water rocket to achieve the success we want.
Nice job of embedding the video into your post. This does save the reader of having to click on the link in order to get to a new page. I appreciate it.

Good resource and I hope it helps in your design of your rocket. Donʻt forget to bring your 2-L bottles for launch on Monday
Hey Ian and Makana :) This is Christina! I really like this video. He actually explains the physics part of the rocket, which I didnʻt really understand. I want to use your guysʻ video, when we eventually have to explain what is happening within the rocket.
