Why do you need a rocket to go to space?

A rocket is a type of engine that pushes itself forward or upward by producing thrust. Unlike a jet engine, which draws in outside air, a rocket engine uses only the substances carried within it. As a result, a rocket can operate in outer space, where there is almost no air. A rocket can produce more power for its size than any other kind of engine. It can carry people and equipment into space. That is why there is aneed for using rocket to go to spce.

How do rockets and space shuttles move in space?

Every action has an equal but opposite reaction. Throw burned fuel very rapidly one way (what a rocket does) and it pushes the rocket the other way. Some people wrongly think a rocket works by pushing the air behind it, but in space there is no air!


How many stages in a rocket engine?
