Objective:
To design, construct, and fly paper rockets that will travel the greatest distance possible across a floor model of the solar system.Description:
In this activity, students construct small flying rockets out of paper and propel them by blowing air through a straw.

Solar System Scale http://www.exploratorium.edu/ronh/solar_system/
This page shows a scale model of the solar system, shrunken down to the point where the Sun, normally more than eight hundred thousand miles across, is the size you see it here. The planets are shown in corresponding scale.

NASAThis lesson allows students to visualize the comparative sizes and distances of solar system bodies by making solar system objects to scale using common objects, walking off the distances between planets and participating in a Web-based Sun/Earth scale model activity
