Day 7 Challenge

Yoda, Soda and Pumps

Inventor Ken Schellenberg has grand plans to launch a soda bottle into orbit. His Rockets, soda pop bottles powered by nothing more than water, dish soap and a bicycle pump, are capable of reaching altitudes of 656 feet.

Schellenberg has started a company to sell kits of his soda bottle rockets, naming it AntiGravity Research Corp.
