Calling all young and aspiring scientists (and astronauts)! The new Cosmic Rocket by 4M makes science fun! Learn about chemical reactions by building and launching this rocket, which works when you combine baking soda and vinegar together. The rocket flies up to 50 feet high in the air! The kit includes the rocket body, a launching pad, a funnel, a measuring cup and detailed assembly and launching instructions.

Powered by vinegar and baking soda (a fun and explosive combination of two items pretty much every one can find in their own kitchens or pantries), this rocket is like a hands-on science experiment the whole family can have fun with and learn some science from. Along with the instructions comes a booklet full of fun rocket science facts.


All you have to do to get this super-fun, high-flying, vinegar-and-baking soda-fuelled rocket launched way up (up to 50 feet!) in the air is build the rocket (indoors or outdoors), take it outside and watch it blast off! The rocket body itself is super light-weight, so it can do some pretty stellar flying way up in the air! It also comes with rocket fins you attach to the body of the rocket to make it launch even higher!


Plus, the rocket kit comes with decorative stickers you can use to customize and personalize your flying shuttle. This is a great gizmo you can use over and over again for super spaceship fun!
