🌟 Join us on this exciting adventure as we celebrate her achievements and ignite the spark of curiosity in young minds with our Bottle Rocket Blastoff experiment!
🚀 *Experiment Overview:*
In this hands-on activity, kids will learn the basics of rocket science by creating their very own bottle rocket that will soar into the sky just like the incredible Mae Jemison did! This engaging experiment not only teaches the principles of thrust, aerodynamics, and pressure but also pays tribute to an amazing woman who broke barriers in the field of space exploration.
👩‍🚀 *Inspiration Behind the Experiment:*
Mae Jemison's groundbreaking journey as an astronaut serves as an inspiration for young scientists everywhere. By dedicating this experiment to her, we aim to encourage kids to reach for the stars and pursue their dreams in science and space exploration.
✨ *What You'll Need:*
- Plastic soda bottle
- Vinegar
- Baking soda
- Tissue paper
- Base for your rocket (i.e. legos)
- Cardboard
- Tape
- Safety goggles
- Outdoor space for launch
🔬 *Step-by-Step Instructions:*
1. Gather all the materials.
2. Create a simple rocket using a plastic soda bottle.
3. Pour vinegar into a bottle.
4. Make a baking soda sack to insert inside the bottle (get ready for a chemical reaction!).
5. Use a bottle cork to accelerate the pressure.
6. Flip the rocket upside down and place it on a flat surface.
7. Stand back, count down, and watch your rocket launch into the sky!
🌈 *Learning Outcomes:*
- Understand the science behind chemical reactions.
- Experience the excitement of launching a rocket into the sky.
- Learn about the achievements of Mae Jemison and the importance of diversity in STEM fields.
🎥 *Don't forget to capture the excitement on camera and share your Bottle Rocket Blastoff with us! Tag us on social media using #MaeJemisonDay and #RocketScienceFun. Let's inspire the next generation of space explorers together! 🌌🚀*
