4 Extreme Soda-Pop Rockets (With Step-By-Step Plans!)

D

If DIY rocketry teaches us anything it's that rockets can come in all shapes and sizes, made from a wide variety of materials. Engineer and pyrotechnician Paul Jarvis prefers to make his rockets from plastic bottles. In his recent book, Soda-Pop Rockets: 20 Sensational Project to Make From Plastic Bottles, Jarvis gives techniques, tips and step-by-step instructions to make rockets—propelled by water, gas and air pressure—out of plastic bottles. Here, excerpted from the book, are four projects to take on at home. Soda-Pop Rockets, published by Chicaco Review Press, will be available on shelves this October.
