Davis Creek Elementary has launched its
first rocket! March 17 marked the day for the first trial run of
the Davis Creek Elementary remote rocket launch. The model was a
small rocket built on a LEGO programmable brick with light sensors to signal
the rocket to launch. The rover operator , a student at Barboursville
Middle School, used the Red Rover software to drive the rover past the
light sensor on the rocket launcher. Once the progam is activated
the rocket zoomed out into the classroom as admiring fifth grade students
watched. Plans are being made to set up more remote rocket launches.
Stay tuned for updates!
