There are outdoor taps by the rocket track, the rocket workshop, and on the side of the building between Bitten’s Garden and the Test Lab. The tap water comes from the local water supply, and unlike bottled spring water, it hasn’t been transported long distances by truck. By filling your water bottle with tap water, you save both the CO₂ emissions from transport and from producing the plastic bottle.
