Kit Includes:
a film canister
antacid tablets
paint
paper
Items needed:
teaspoon for measuring
water
Read instructions all the way through before proceeding.
Important!
Film canister rockets are high speed projectiles.
Always launch your rocket on level ground.
Never aim your rocket at anyone.
Stand back away from the rocket during the launch phase.
Add a few teaspoons of water to each paint color and mix well.
Spread your paper out on your rocket launching area outside.
Add some paint/water to the canister.
Break the antacid tablets into halves or quarters.
Drop a piece of the tablet into the paint-filled canister and QUICKLY replace the lid. Turn the canister upside down on the paper and back away.
IMPORTANT!
Do not stand over the rocket.
The rocket will launch at high speed very quickly. If your rocket doesn't launch, give it a full minute before carefully approaching to troubleshoot. The most common problem is that the lid isn't properly closed and sealed.
