What keeps a probe moving after the rocket no longer pushes it?
Inertia. Newton's first law.
How does inertia apply to a rocket?
It either keeps it still on the ground or stable as it's moving, but I'm not Stephen Hawking...
How can you use inertia in a sentence?

What is the purpose calculating moment of inertia?
Inertia is affected by an outside force. So if you calculate the moment of inertia, you calculate the magnitude and possibly the direction of the outside force. You can use this to determine acceleration.
What source of energy is used by the rocket?
Depends on the rocket. Some rockets use solid fuel, some use liquid.
What keeps a rocket going after the rocket is no longer pushed?
inertia (newton's third law of motion)
What two forces slow rocket down when out of fuel?
inertia and friction are the two forces that slow down a rocket
