Water Rocket Soars!!

Today is the day APOLO project is done.Nicely done. Our multi stage rocket works well.....Air pressure 80 psi....Turn on pressure switch....pump the booster....pump the secondary rocket.....pump again the booster and LAUNCH!!!

Booster lift the whole rocket to one storey high....and pulled down by two strings attached with launcher pad. This triggers the secondary rocket to launch up another storey high.....Upon apogee...parachute deploys.....Few seconds later....Rocket land safely.

We got this on video....I and Jun Lii share this very moment together....Nice job SAE pioneer team. Prof Horizon is there too witnesses our launch process.....

Today we declared APOLO project accomplished.
