Egg Drop Challenge - Iteration #1

Total Achievements earned : 12


Achievement Justification


Three sketches - Pictures don't lie


Generate list of materials - Our material list included, rubber bands, pipe cleaners, and Styrofoam. Our bonus material was the robotics ball as an exoskeleton.


Materials fit in a printer paper box - No picture but the final project did fit in there.


Material weight - Our materials weigh less than 300 grams. The actual "weight" was 254 grams.


Accuracy - We hit inside the bull's eye! We are the best around.



The design that seemed to work the best was to encase the egg in Styrofoam. Every group that did that had their egg survive. So I would keep our design the same, but instead of having pipe cleaners hold the egg, I would have a Styrofoam block hold it.
