Hi.

Third day of sabbacticals was quite slack. Today no new concepts were taught and in the morning from 8 to 10, we were given free time to work on our own rocket and poster. After that was a 40 minutes break, before we went to the field to launch our rockets all the way till 12. A short debrief follows and we were dismissed at 12.10.

However, the launching of rockets today wasn't that successful. Although our rocket's parachute had successfully opened up 3 out of the 4 times we launched our rocket, it either landed very far away from the 'target' or flew very low, close to the ground. Quite disappointing. Tomorrow we are to present on our rockets and our poster. Kinda scary, but hope that all goes well for tomorrow.

Alright, that's all for today. Hope that tomorrow will be a good day.
