Brief:
T' Meteor is 1.5 liter bottle with three fins and a nose cone. It launched with vinegar and bakin' powder t' a hundred feet. Blimey! It is meant for little kids who want rockets with out explosives.

Construction:
T' rocket is made form a 1.5 liter bottle, matey, matey, a sheet o' balsa wood, silver shiny tape, foam tape, matey, a transparent red paper and a plastic nose cone. Avast! Begad! T' rocket is launched with two rubber stoppers, shiver me timbers, arrr, a big screw, arrr, matey, a plastic tube, and a bolt. Every thin' I listed comes with t' kit!

First you trace and cut out t' fins from a sheet o' balsa wood. Ya scallywag! Then you cover t' fins with this shiny silver paper they give t' t' make it look nice. T' you glue t' fins on t' t' pop bottle and reinforce it with t' extra shiny paper. Next you tape a red transparent piece o' plastic on t' t' top of the pop bottle t' hold on t' nose cone. Avast! Arrr! T' instructions were clear on how to make t' Meteor, but were too long. Well, me hearties, blow me down! Withe t' materials that t' rocket are make form, me hearties, I don't think it was worth t' $20 that I bought it for.

Finishing:
There really was nay finishin' t' do because t' body is transparent. Avast, me proud beauty! It still looks neat though.

Construction Rating: 3 out o' 5

Flight:
T' flight o' this rocket be very interesting. Aye aye! First you put about a cup of vinegar into t' pop bottle. T' you stick t' plastic tube on t' t' rubber stopper and fill it up with as much bakin' powder as you want. Then you put the rubber stopper with t' bakin' powder into t' bottle (the rubber stopper stops at t' openin' o' t' bottle while t' tube o' bakin' powder goes inside the bottle). Blimey! Then you turn t' rocket upside down and start shakin' it so the chemicals mix. Aye aye! You then turn it right side up and put it on t' ground. Avast, me proud beauty! Poof up into t' air about 100 feet then fall back t' earth. That is what is supposed to happen on a normal flight, arrr, which never happened for me. Avast, me proud beauty! When I would mix up the chemicals, would explode in me hands and get me soakin' wet. Begad! That happened 3 times. But out o' all t' failures, ya bilge rat, I did get it t' work once by lettin' it launch in me hand. Arrr! T' rocket is nay propelled by t' liquids, as it looks like in t' picture, but by t' gasses in which it produces. Ya scallywag! It was kind o' neat to see a rocket propelled by somethin' you could nay see.

Recovery:
T' recover is nay original, ya bilge rat, ya bilge rat, once it is up in t' air, me hearties, matey, it just falls back to earth with no recovery systems. Avast! Blimey! It doesn't need any anyway because all it is is a pop bottle. Well, blow me down! Blimey!

Flight Rating: 2 out o' 5

Summary:
If you want a present for a kid that is a rocket and can nay hurt you or start a fire and gets you wet, this is what you are lookin' for. Avast! Aye aye! Personally, shiver me timbers, I probably would nay recommend it t' anyone though.
