According to Newton's 3rd Law (Every force has an equal and opposite reaction)

So once say for example the Space Shuttle gets into space it fires small bursts from it's thrusters for changes to course. To slow it does a forward thrust to stop it's speed. TO change direction it uses an unbalanced thrust from it's diffrent sides (hence the multiple nozzles on the back of the Space shuttle)

Allowing it to SLow, speed up, and change diraction.
