Launching the Power Rocket couldn’t be easier. Once fully charged, simply place the rocket on the included launcher, then press the launch button one, two, or three times to set your flight time.

What our experts think

Watch as learning “takes flight” with the National Geographic Power Rocket. Our testers were excited to get started and watch their rockets launch high in the sky. With easy to follow pictured instructions, and a little help from an adult initially, children 8+ were able to build their independence and success with their launches. The children loved playing in pairs and teams. The level of repeat engagement and fun, socialization, and teamwork observed was fantastic. Further, playing with this powered rocket gets children and families outdoors with ample opportunities for physical activity when retrieving their rockets for the next launch. Children, and adults alike, did not tire of this activity. The National Geographic Power Rocket was a “blast” for the whole family. It fosters scientific curiosity and exploration of scientific principles that are applied in the real world. This power rocket is excellent for an outdoor school lesson or family project
