Problem:A cost efficient egg transport vehicle must be designed and created to be versatile enough to safely travel on land, in water, and through the air.

Step 2: ResearchWater The first form of water

transportation were boats. To make them move was by man-

power. Then they were powered by

engines. Buoyant materials that are cheap

and also durable will be needed as well for the vehicle to succeed.

Step 2: Research…Land The first idea for a motor powered car was

drawn by Leonardo da Vinci and Isaac Newton.

The first self-propelled road vehicle was made in 1769 by Nicolas Joseph.

In the 1880’s automobiles brought many

benefits to humanity.

To be successful in the land challenge the vehicle must protect the passenger (egg) from being injured.

Research… Air Around 200 B.C. the first forms of

flight were kites.

Around the 17th and 19th century Hot balloons were created by the Chinese.

In 1890 the first self-propelled glider was created by Clement Ader.
