How do rockets soar up into the air? With this kit, you’ll learn about the science of propulsion, just a little closer to the ground, with your balloon rocket car! When the balloon is inflated, it’s full of pressurized air. Releasing it forces air to rush backward, and by Newton’s Third Law, the car shoots forward with equal force! Compete with your friends and see who can go the furthest!
