Why don't rockets have wings?

Some rockets do have wings. Then again if the rocket operates in space, wings won't do any good. Most big rockets have control systems that swivel their main engines to balance the rocket.


Do rockets have wing?

A rocket is a form of propulsion. If a rocket is used to power an airplane, it is referred to as a rocket-plane, and has wings like an airplane. It the rocket is use to propel a vehicle vertically, which does not need wicgs to provide lift, it is called simply a rocket. Sometimes fins are used to stabilize or guide a rocket in flight, but these are referred to as fins rather than wings.


What effect does the wind have on the way you launch the rocket?

The wind negatively affects the rocket. This is because the air resistance, as the rocket goes up, increases rapidly and slows down the rocket.


What do you call the wings of the rocket?

Rockets do not have wings.However rockets need a means of stabilization and control, this can be done two ways:thruster controlsfins (this will only work while the rocket is in the atmosphere)With thruster controls the rocket engine thrust may be varied, the rocket engine nozzles may gimbal, or auxiliary thrusters may be used.What you are probably thinking of is the fins, which can be either fixed or movable. But they have no lift and are not wings and as stated above many rockets totally lack any fins.


What is the best wing shape for a rocket?

Wings are totally useless in space. The only reason the Shuttle had wings was so it could land back on earth. It used very smallrockets to maneuver in space.

What are rocket fins?

Fins are small aerodynamic wings attached to the rear of the rocket. These are to give guidance and stop it from spinning.

Yes it will.
