Product Description
Take your fizzing and popping Flying Film Canisters to a whole new level with the Ultimate Flying Film Canisters Kit. You’ll receive 30 of our famous canisters along with a Film Canister Rocket Launcher, a jar of 45 Flat Fizzers, and a pair of safety glasses. And there’s even more! Now you can launch up to 10 canisters at once with our new spacers and the speed launching Film Canister Saucer! Have a blast… while blasting off!
The Flying Film Canisters are the same reliable canisters you’ve grown to love, but we’re giving you way more to experiment with. In addition to a Film Canister Rocket Launcher that let’s you direct your film canister for blasting fun, you’ll get a jar of our new Flat Fizzers. These sodium bicarbonate tablets dissolve in water to product carbon dioxide gas… perfect for launching canisters!
And the biggest feature of the Ultimate Flying Film Canisters Kit is the ability to launch up to 10 Flying Film Canisters simultaneously. You’ll use spacers that allow you to place all your ingredients inside the canister before launch… all you have to do is flip the canister over! Couple that with the speed launcher, which we’ve affectionately dubbed the Film Canister Saucer, and you can launch 10 canisters at the same time! Recommended for ages 6 and up.

How Does It Work?
When you have gas building-up in an enclosed space, what happens? Wait… don’t answer that. More specifically, what happens when CO2 builds up in a closed film canister? Simple – an explosion so fun you won’t want the popping to stop.
What Does It Teach?
Young scientists will be experiencing acid-base reactions, air pressure, minor explosions, and Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion… all from some archaic film canisters!
Barb DiDonato –
My students loved this experiment, but I spent a lot of time in the days prior trying to get the tops to pop. I used the tablets sent with the Kit, but it turns out they were 6 months past the expiration date! I tried everything – changed the temperature and the amount of liquid, crushed, whole – no POP! But the kit is well made otherwise and lots of fun. I used plain old Alka-Seltzer tabs instead.
