The Cosmic Ray® Classroom Kit Bundle takes the guesswork out of planning a complete rocketry experience. Instead of sourcing rockets, engines, launch equipment, and lesson plans separately, this convenient bundle gives educators everything they need in a single package. It supports 12 students, providing each one with their own rocket and enough engines for two exciting flights.
By combining the Cosmic Ray Bulk Pack, A8-3 Engine Bulk Pack, the Lifetime Launch System, and a full set of Estes classroom lesson plans, this bundle saves valuable prep time. You can focus on teaching and guiding your students through the thrill of model rocketry rather than assembling a long supply list.
Engaging Hands-On Learning with the Cosmic Ray® Bulk Pack
The Cosmic Ray rocket is designed specifically for beginners, making it perfect for classrooms and youth groups. Its snap together construction requires no glue or paint, which leaves more class time for STEM learning and student creativity. Each rocket features a blank white body tube so students can personalize their designs before launch.
With altitudes of more than 1,300 feet and a reliable recovery system, the Cosmic Ray gives students a complete look at aerodynamics, thrust, flight stability, and descent. The build process reinforces engineering skills while the launch brings physics lessons to life in a way that is memorable and exciting.
Reliable Launches with the A8-3 Engine Bulk Pack
The A8-3 engine is ideal for educational programs because it provides safe, predictable performance that allows students to observe the full flight sequence. Each bulk pack includes everything needed for preparation, including engines, starters, plugs, and recovery wadding. The 24 included engines mean every student can complete two launches for deeper learning and more robust data collection.
These engines are trusted by teachers for their consistency and allow for meaningful scientific comparisons between flights. Students can track altitude, assess recovery performance, and apply classroom concepts to real world experimentation.
Launch Equipment Built for the Classroom
The Lifetime Launch System is included to give educators a dependable, long term solution for repeated group launches. The sturdy launch pad stands 18 inches tall and creates enough working room for students to safely set up their rockets. The Pro Series II controller and 30 foot cable help ensure safe distances during launch activities, and the audible continuity indicator gives students clear feedback before ignition.
Designed to withstand frequent use, this system supports both single engine rockets and more advanced cluster powered models. With its lifetime limited warranty, it is a launch solution that will serve your program year after year.
Ready to Teach with 10 Standards Aligned Lesson Plans
To support hands-on learning, the Cosmic Ray Classroom Kit Bundle also includes a curated set of Estes lesson plans and youth program guides. These resources cover physics, engineering, history, problem solving, and scientific data collection. Topics include lunar exploration, flight forces, space race history, and rocketry fundamentals.
With these materials, educators can easily build multi day units or short activity based lessons that connect directly to the rocketry experience. The included plans provide structured objectives, worksheets, and discussion prompts that enrich each phase of the project from pre launch planning to post flight reflection.
