Rocket Launch May 11, 2013

Join us for a FREE family event at The Boeing Company this May! Our annual Rocket Launch is full of engaging, hands-on activities highlighted by designing, building, and launching your own rocket made from a 2-liter plastic soda bottle.
Build your rocket at home, or use our supplies to construct a rocket with the help of real engineers. The competition will consist of creating and launching a bottle water rocket (yes, you may get wet!) and the payload with the longest “hang time” in the air wins! The grand prize winner will receive an opportunity to watch an actual rocket launch courtesy of The Boeing Company and United Launch Alliance.
Plus, don’t miss a special appearance by former astronaut Chris Ferguson! Be sure to bring your lawn chairs and watch as rockets launch throughout the day and enjoy lunch available from several of OC’s top food trucks.
