Touchdown lab!
Step 8 Questions:
What forces affected your lander as it fell?
Your first idea rarely works out perfectly. How does testing help you improve your design?
The moon is covered in a thick layer of dust. How might this be an advantage? A disadvantage?
Where/when are potential and kinetic energy acting on your lander?
October 13 On the Moon
Complete and Turn in Touchdown labs!
These people may not move on until they see me:
