Our hypothesis was that once the Oobleck is frozen it will be afe to explore on.
What we want to get out of this is to be able to use the ice despenser which is on the spaceship to freeze the Oobleck so that we can explore.
We predict that the Oobleck will stay frozen long enough for us to land, explore, and take off again. If this goes wrong we will use the jet skies.
We have to have a thick enough and wide enough amount of frozen Oobleck so that we don't sink or the Oobleck doesn't crack.
To make sure that it was stable we put a weight on the Frozen Oobleck to see if it brakes or sinks.
If we give the tempurature that the Oobleck is before it is frozen then when we take it out of the freezer to see how cold it is then we could subtract the tempurature from how it was before it was frozen to get how cold it would need to freeze it.
Take tempurature of freezer for about 6 hours.
When you take it out it should be frozen. It takes 3 hours to though.
Although it has 2 layers. One layer is soft Oobleck and the other is liquid Oobleck. If you did a hole into the Oobleck the hole will not absorb back for the next ten minutes.
