How is pyramid like science process?

The pyramid project involves four people to create a pyramid out of plastic cups, by using four tied strings to an elastic band. Each person of the group has to pull the string to maximize the size of the elastic band from each side. The size should be able to fit around the top of the plastic cup which would make it easier to move.
This project was like a science project because thinking, imagery and ideas were needed before starting the project. If a small error was made the process was to be started all over again. Scientific method requires various steps to be followed and initiated again if the result does not come through. Equal pull force by other team members with focused attention was needed to accomplish the mission. Once the pyramid was created, our results were reported to the teacher.
