Overview

The Estes Rocket Science STEM Kit is more than just a rocket—it’s a complete hands-on learning experience designed to ignite curiosity, creativity, and a love of STEM in your students. Perfect for classrooms, STEM clubs, scouting groups, or summer camps, this kit combines the thrill of launching a real model rocket with lessons in physics, engineering, and data collection. Students don’t just watch science happen—they become the scientists driving the discovery.

Build, Launch, and Experiment

Your students will begin by building their very own model rocket, gaining hands-on experience with engineering concepts like aerodynamics, stability, and propulsion. With the included launch system and engines, they’ll watch their rocket soar up to 1,100 feet—an unforgettable demonstration of the principles of thrust and Newton’s Laws of Motion. After recovery, the excitement doesn’t stop. Students can swap out different engines, re-launch, and compare performance, turning each flight into an experiment that reinforces classroom lessons.

Measure, Track, and Analyze

Every launch is an opportunity for real-world data collection. With the included Mini AltiTrak altitude tracker, students can measure rocket performance and calculate altitude. This transforms rocket launches into engaging STEM challenges—collecting data, forming hypotheses, and analyzing results just like professional scientists and engineers. The process builds critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills while making abstract scientific concepts concrete and exciting.

Inspire the Next Generation of Innovators

More than a rocket kit, this is an entry point into aerospace, engineering, and STEM careers. The Rocket Science STEM Kit creates lasting memories for students while providing teachers with a powerful tool to connect core curriculum to real-world applications. Whether you’re leading a classroom, summer camp, or youth program, this kit delivers both fun and meaningful learning in every launch. The sky is no longer the limit—it’s just the beginning.
