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.


What will rockets be used for in the future?

Rockets, help us today because they can take us to space which is miles away from Earth.

Is the ballista still used today?

No, it is a weapon of ancient history. However in a loose way you can say that the ballista is still used today in the form of our rockets and missiles. A ballista was a blanket term for something thrown or the device that threw them. The use of missiles in modern warfare is sometimes considered a descendant of the ancient ballista. Some are even called ballisticmissiles.

Is the rocket still used in the military today?

It depends on what you mean by rocket. If you mean like a space rocket type, no. Definitely not. Other wise, if you mean nuclear missle types, they aren't used because of a truce or pact type thing. Countries still own them but they are in active and only super powers or world powers have them as far as i know. <><><><> Yes, rockets a re used quite a bit- but not as space vehicles. Many anti-tank weapons are shoulder fired rockets. Rockets are also used as anti-aircraft and anti-missle weapons, and used as large artillery.
