2020 Challenges

Week 1: Paper Ball Launcher

Your Challenge

Create a device to launch, throw, drop or fling a paper ball as far as possible. Your ball must be made out of a single piece of 8 1/2 x 11” piece of paper. That’s the size of regular printer or notebook paper.

Once you can successfully launch your ball, see how far you can launch it. Now how accurately can you launch it?
