       in their garage or basement workshops using inexpensive 
       household or hardware store materials and this step-by-
       step guide. Clear instructions, diagrams, and photographs 
       show how to build projects ranging from the simplea match-
       powered rocketto the more complexa scale-model, table-top 
       catapultto the offbeata tennis ball cannon. With a strong 
       emphasis on safety, the book also gives tips on 
       troubleshooting, explains the physics behind the projects,
       and profiles scientists and extraordinary experimenters 
       such as Alfred Nobel, Robert Goddard, and Isaac Newton. 
       This book will be indispensable for the legions of 
       backyard toy-rocket launchers and fireworks fanatics who
