History and Events



            The water rocket launcher has a long history.  The Water rocket revolutionized the 20th century ideals about rockets. They provided use for the invention of actual water rockets. They further more helped us understand the use of actual rockets. There were many achievements that led to the creation of historic events for the Water rockets.
In reality there is no actual date which traces to the creation of the water rocket. I have found no online citation for who invented the water rocket, but a few hours spent searching in the US Patent Office archives yielded some interesting evidence. There are a large number of patents relating to toy rockets and guns, including the famous Park Plastics 2-stage water rocket. Patents before 1972 are not searchable for text, so this is a very slow process.
            These past patents may not be water rocket themselves but they do actually provide the same function. They are both powered by the gas pressure of life and they provide thrust through the propelling of water. These patents were mainly used for underwater purposes and do not imitate the water rocket design. The water rocket patents came about in the 20th century as I have said before.
            After the creation of these rockets, the modern age found a new way to make recreational events out of this. People would soon create festivals to actually celebrate the events in general. People would be willing to actually launch the rockets into the air to celebrate the matter. Nothing important happened except that this helped change the lives of many people.
            Records would be broken. People stride to make the highest launched rocket possible. Others would launch s many rockets as they could into the air. These people aimed to make new records and make a name for themselves. In history the highest altitude reached was of 2044 ft. This was marked by a rocket which was averaged from two flights. There was a camera on top to provide the air view of the flights accomplishment.
