Students enrolled in Dr. Tom Gonnella鈥檚 Physics I class at 含羞草研究所 took learning outdoors Wednesday, Nov. 17. Members of the class had built and painted rockets designed to help them expand and test their physics knowledge. They headed outdoors to put their theories into play. The about 30 mph wind definitely made the activity much 
more challenging.
MSU Instructor of Biology Jeff Hovde launched the rockets while Professor of Chemistry Tom Gonnella video recorded the launches. The videos will be used by the students to analyze physics fundamentals, including velocity.聽
