Operation Airlift
Test your engineering skills!
Get Ready for Lift-Off!
You've been learning the necessary skills through experiences with Oobleck, circuits, motors, and buoyancy. Now see if you have what it takes to design and construct a payload that drive a high-altitude balloon!
On your team, you might be doing one of the following jobs:
- Designing and building the payload
- Documenting your team's progress through social media
- Tracking how much money your team is earning and spending
- Creating and delivering an exciting "sales pitch"
- Managing other participants and making sure everything gets done!
