The earliest form of rockets can be traced back to 13th century China, when Taoist alchemists used black powder to propel projectiles. Rockets were being used by the Mongols and Genghis Khan in their battles in Russia and Eastern Europe by the mid-1240s.
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.
Yes, smoke grenades, marking rounds, rockets, and various forms of flame weapons were used in Vietnam (along with CS gas). But officially the US did not deploy chemical warfare in Vietnam. During the Viet era; US doctrine was: 1. Never to deploy biological weapons 2. Use chemical warfare only in self defense (meaning the other nation had to use it first) 3. Reserved the right of first strike with nuclear weapons
