Houston, we have lift-off!!!

This baby may not look like much, but it is the result of our toll and toil for the past of the whole week! Designing.. calculating safety factor, figuring out parachute deployment method, wind tunnel testing, drag coefficient reducing. Haha. Sounds fun doesn't it. It all came to an end on friday when each group had 2 chances to covert the "Highest Altitude" and "Longest Time Aloft" awards. We didn't win the altitude prize for sure, but was in contention for longest time aloft as our parachute was one of the few that deployed like a beauty. So proud of you baby! :)
