Clear step-by-step instructions with full-colour illustrations and templates accompany each project, starting out with how to construct a reusable launch pad. If you'd like to track your rockets' performance, it even includes instructions on how to build a clinometer to measure their altitudes and trajectories. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to build these projects, but who knows what career path you'll take after you do?
