Smithsonian Rocket Science

Blast off into hands-on science fun with the Smithsonian Rocket Science Kit! Kids can build and launch their very own rocket powered by the classic (and thrilling) baking soda and vinegar reaction. By experimenting with launch surfaces, wind conditions, and fuel ratios, young engineers can test what it takes to send their rocket soaring to 50 feet. Designed for repeat launches, the reusable rocket body and soft-foam nose cone are built to withstand plenty of spectacular crash landings.

With clear, step-by-step instructions and all the essential parts included, this kit makes rocketry approachable, exciting, and educational. Inspired by the legendary rockets on display at the National Air and Space Museum, it's the perfect way to turn curiosity about space and physics into a high-flying STEM adventure
