How high will it fly?

 Today we're doing some crazy science we are learning how to use a Aqua pod. I think the Aqua pod will go at least 5 or 6 meters high because I seen people do it before I think  if we do the same thing it will work. So it turned out if did go about the height I guessed let me walk you through the steps we used to make the aqua pod go flying. Do you know what a Aqua pod is? It's basically a orange launch pad for the bottle and something for the pump to connect to.

Firstly you have to fill your bottle (with water) to about 1/3  then you get the aqua pod and tip it upside down so the the water wouldn't spill when you screw the bottle onto the valve. There is a black rubber seal on the valve to stop the water from leaking and dripping.

Secondly you have to connect the  pump to anthor valve and pump it eight times. Then you pull the string and with the pressure for the air that had been pumped into the bottle it make it blast of into the sky. And that's what we did with our Aquapod here's a photo of it.
