Some designs/strategies our class did well on was using balloons. Some groups put little barriers on their eggs so their egg would be protected. Terry and I decided to put our egg in a balloon that was inside another balloon to absorb the impact better. We would probably put more protection around our egg if we had to redesign it because our egg broke unfortunately.
You guys had a really impressive drop. It was windy and you still hit the bullseye we had said was the target!
ReplyDeleteIf you did this again, how would you redesign your project?
