As for "all of us here on Earth" people, rockets contribute a negligible increase in water vapor to their launch areas, and a statistically miniscule chance that part of one could someday fall on your house :-) As for those people skilled enough to fly in spacecraft, the major effects of rocket flight are twofold : 1) a short period of high-G (acceleration) stress during takeoffs and landings (not usually a cause of chronic injury) ; and 2) loss of muscle tone and bone calcium if working for long periods in weightless conditions in space (which is not actually an effect of the rocket itself).

What impact did rockets have on the people in World War 2?

Rockets became an important type of bomb. The rockets were quick and could go far. Both the Allied Forces esp. the Navies, used rockets. The Germans made huge rockets/missiles called the V2 Rocket. It could fly from Germany over to designated cities in England. These rocket bombs bombed London and other places for over seventy days straight. This was called The Blitz. These rockets were the predecessors of the smart bombs/missiles of today and the Rockets that sent men to the moon.


How were rockets first used to help people?

Rockets were first used to help people in the form of transportation. The first manned rocket flight took place in 1961 when Yuri Gagarin orbited Earth in the Vostok 1 spacecraft. Since then, rockets have been used to carry astronauts and supplies to and from space stations like the International Space Station (ISS), facilitating human presence in space exploration and research. Rockets have also played a crucial role in launching satellites for communication, weather monitoring, and scientific research, benefiting people worldwide.

Where were rockets used in the 18th century?

The British began using rockets as weapons in the late 1700's, but they were inaccurate in their aim. The main purpose for the Brit's using rockets was to reduce enemy morale. The Tippoo Sultan of Mysore, India famously used 1000's of rockets in defending Seringapatam (a huge well defended fortress) against the British in 1799. Editor's Note: The rockets were used by the Brits to siege ports. Isaac Newton was the developer of the rockets they used. Another fellow improved the rockets adding the fins so they would spin into the direction they wanted to the rockets to go. This technology is still used today. Rockets are still used for "shock and awe" or to confuse the enemy. We use rockets now primarily to send satellites into outer space.
