Project Title: Nifty Nylon V.S. Powerful Polyester
Project Abstract
The purpose of my project was to determine if polyester or nylon was stronger and better for hot air balloon construction. My hypothesis was that polyester was stronger than nylon for hot air balloon construction. After testing both fabrics, I discovered that polyester was stronger therefore my hypothesis was correct.
