This week in class we did our egg drop. My group (Amber and Megan) and I created our capsule by digging a hole in the middle sponge, placing our egg inside and sandwiching it between the other two sponges. Then, we used a rubber band to keep it together and rope so that it was extra safe. It was my job to launch our capsule. As I threw it onto the road, I had little butterflies in my tummy. Fortunately, they flew away when I saw the result that our egg had survived. Due to the increased duration of contact with the road and the air resistance, our egg was safe and sound in its spongey home.
Woah lol your contraption looks pretty nuts! I understand why it would work because of the fact that the spongey home around it would absorb all the impact! Good job guys!
