Game: Rocket Modeler URL: http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/rocket/rktsim.html Age Level: Maybe 5th grade and up. What it does: Teaches basic concepts of rocket design to modelers. Lets user change materials, size, and weight of components and computes the changes to performance. Observations: Java powered. Very basic, functional interface that suggests this is engineering, not entertainment. Rocket-crazed kids will love it. ObservationsUp/Down: Up.
