In Science class we are engineering a craft to hold an egg. It is called the Team X project. The egg will be dropped from a height down to a target. The goal is for the egg to land on the target without breaking. Problems we will be facing in this project is trying not to spend over our budget. We have to be very precise with the tools we use because they cost so much. We will also have to work through building our craft so that it won't break after a fall. We have to try and think of ways to help our craft land safely on the target without breaking the egg.
In my group there is Caleb and Afifah. We came up with the idea-with a bit of help- to make a pyramid shaped parachute with a basket connected to it, holding our egg. We worked hard trying to get everything to fit our budget, and we did. Our biggest challenge would be building the craft, and seeing if everything works. I hope that by next class we will be finished with the testing of the separate parts.
