Overview

Two Stages, Endless Discoveries

The Cosmic Cascade brings the thrill of two-stage rocket launches to students, offering a hands-on opportunity to explore advanced concepts in physics and aerodynamics. Launch the first stage alone to see how it performs, then add the second stage for even more impressive heights. This modular approach allows students to observe and compare the mechanics and effects of multi-stage flight.

Quick and Easy Assembly

Say goodbye to complicated builds! The Cosmic Cascade features snap-in fins and minimal gluing, making it simple and quick to assemble. Designed for busy classrooms and clubs, this rocket ensures more time is spent launching and learning, rather than assembling. Students can focus on experimenting and exploring, while educators can enjoy a stress-free setup process.

Creative and Customizable Design

Encourage student creativity with the Cosmic Cascade’s blank body tube. Students can decorate and personalize their rockets with their own designs, making each one a unique masterpiece. Whether it’s a fun artistic activity or a chance to explore branding and identity, this feature adds a personal touch to the learning experience.

Data Collection Made Easy

The Cosmic Cascade’s payload section is perfect for real-world experimentation. Easily add an altimeter to collect flight data or test the effects of added mass on altitude. By integrating tools for data collection, this rocket helps students develop analytical skills while exploring scientific principles.

Endless Experimentation Opportunities

From comparing single-stage and two-stage launches to experimenting with payload weight, the Cosmic Cascade offers a variety of experiments that reinforce STEM concepts. Its flexible design allows for repeated use and continuous learning, making it an invaluable resource for classrooms, clubs, and STEM enthusiasts.

Built for Education

Estes Education designed the Cosmic Cascade with educators in mind. Its durable materials and reliable recovery system ensure consistent performance, even after multiple launches. This rocket is more than a learning tool—it’s a gateway to inspiring the next generation of scientists, engineers, and innovators.

The Cosmic Cascade is the ultimate blend of creativity, experimentation, and hands-on learning. With its two-stage design, customizable features, and focus on STEM education, this rocket empowers students to explore the science behind rocketry in an engaging and unforgettable way.

Great Multi-Stage Rocket

I love multi-stage rockets, and when Estes released this I just had to have one! This rocket looks sharp and may be the perfect first time multi-stage rocket for you! Construction was very simple. I love how the shock cord and launch lug come pre installed. I was surprised there is no decals with the kit, but that was my fault from not paying close attention to the description. Not that big of a deal, I can easily come up with my own decorations!

Not as pictured

There are no decals. Just what is “seen” in the picture. I have my doubts about Estes Rockets now.. The rocket was assembled but is white. The picture shows otherwise.

Cool “Learner” Design

A fun base for creative finishing on a simple “build.” As a “newly returning rocketeer” who is taking a judicious approach to relearning and expanding on a craft he last enjoyed originally over sixty years ago, I find the Cosmic Cascade a perfect test bed rocket to hone the skills needed for more complex projects.
