This is a very good question, however it's irrelevant: who gives a flyin f*ck about how rockets work?? They just f*ckin do!
A better question is, if toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what would happen if you strapped buttered toast to the back of a cat and dropped it?

How can a rocket move through outer space where no matter exists for it to push on?
The conservation of momentum is such that, when a rocket throws fuel and gas out of its thrusters, in order to maintain equilibrium, the rocket moves forwards to counter the motion backwards of the propellant.
How long a rocket takes to fly to outer space?
it takes a matter of minutes. The shuttle takes 8-9 minutes to reach space.
How can a rocket move through space where no matter exist?
Where no matter exists, there is nothing to interfere with the rocket's motion through space. A body in motion tends to remain in motion, and if nothing interferes with that motion, the body will continue to move.
What is ballon rocket Aim?
The balloon rocket main aim is to test the force of gravity in the outer space. The main aim of the balloon rocket is to investigate all forces that affect the earth and the outer space.
A space probe may be carried by a rocket into outer space what keep the probe moving after the rocket no longer pushes it?
Inertia.

What is the rocket flight path from the earth to the moon?
Up through the atmosphere and through outer space.

What are space rockets?
That refers to a rocket that goes into outer space - or that is used to drive something into outer space.

How is volume and outer space related?
No, they are properties of matter. Outer space has the properties it has because it has little to no matter.

Inertia.
When was the first rocket sent to outer space?
Sputnik
What does a human need to get to outer space?
You, simply, you need a spacesuit and a air tank and a space rocket to get to space
Are rocket fins necessary in outer-space?
No. Most of rocket designs nowadays don't even incorporate fins at all, even considering the portion of trajectory they travel through atmosphere.
Is the speed of sound the same in air as it is in outer space?
There is no sound in space. Sound is a wave of energy passing through matter that we can hear, and in space, there is no matter for the sound to pass through, or at least the gasses that are there aren't close enough together.
