Omega+3+.Progress.

October.28, 2011 (Day 1): Made a Wiki. With the blood, sweat and tears of thinking what to do in our project, we have no idea on what to do yet.

November.4, 2011 (Day 2): After a week of nothing we finally started the rocket. We use white glue to stick two paper towel rolls together for our body tube to make it thick and solid. We then took pictures of our success and called it a day.

November.7, 2011 (Day 3): We did a lot today. When we spotted that the tube was dry, Arian put our orange plastic wings on the rocket. After using hot glue and waiting for it to dry, we were working on our nose cone by attaching two paper cups together. Next the three of us were separately working on different tasks. Avery was working on the parachute, Reggie was working on the shock cord by gluing it to the nose cone, and Arian was continuing to work on the wings. After everyone finished we started to work on the engine mount assembly and hook. We were unsuccessful but we will try again tomorrow. But tonight Avery will focus on colors for our rocket.

November.8, 2011 (time is 9:33): I found out one of our members deleted the pictures I uploaded late at night. The captions in the pictures are also deleted. You know who you are, you suck ... -sigh- time to re-upload again, here we go carpal tunnel and crusty eyes to the max.

November.8, 2011 (Day 4): After Avery brought our rocket, it was now spray painted black. Arian and Reggie worked on sticking blue foam to stable the engine to the tube. We then painted the symbol "OMEGA" on our rocket with the color red. After we put two small straws so the stick can insert our rocket. Hopefully our efforts we put on our rocket is successful.

Novermber.8, 2011 (Day 4): Today we were about to launch our rockets. We then realize in order to launch the rocket we needed to stabilize the foam that would hold the engine. Mr. K told us that we would have a chance to launch it on Thursday. After that period, OMEGA 3 glued the foam which turned out to be solid and ready for takeoff in 2 days!

November.10, 2011 (Day 5): After a long wait we finally got to launch our rocket! It turned out to be okay since we thought it would explode. Instead of going up, it went diagonally and started to spin. The launch was successful but there were some that was much better. We decided that the wings were the cause of the spinning. Basel wood or other types of wood would of been better then plastic fins. All in all the project made us closer as a team and realize that team work is crucial in order to have a successful project (:
