Title: Rocket Launch Probability
Url: https://mste.illinois.edu/activity/rocket/
Creator: Exner, Nicholas
Publisher: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Description: This applet is designed to teach an application of probability. This Java applet works by simulating a situation where a three stage rocket is about to be launched. In order for a successful launch to occur all three stages of the rocket must successfully pass their pre-takeoff tests. By default, each stage has a 50% chance of success, however, this can be altered by dragging the bar next to each stage.
