For August's competition, we challenged you to build your own rocket, using materials that you can find at home. The results were space-tacular!
Ayla Parkin, age 9
Look at this gigantic rocket! Made from an old washing machine drum base, she will certainly spin to outer space!

We hope you enjoy your Destination: Space book written by astrophysics professor Dr Christoph Englert and illustrated by Tom Clohosy Cole.

Findlay, aged 7 with his brightly coloured rocket! Look at it soaring gracefully through the sky.
