There have been a great number of locations. Currently, rockets are routinely launched into space from Cape Canaveral, Florida, from Wallops Island, Virginia, and from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.
Edwards Air Force Base, California has been a test site for rocket-powered aircraft since the end of World War II and still is.
There are commercial rocket launch bases at Spaceport America in New Mexico and Mojave Spaceport, Mojave, California. SpacePort America will be the home base for Virgin Galactic rocket-plane excursions, while Scaled Composites flies the sub-orbital SpaceShipOne and WhiteKnight carrier craft from the Mojave Spaceport.

Why can a rocket fly into space?
it can fly because the fire that comes out of the back of the rocket is its thrust.So when the fire comes out the back it causes the rocket to thrust forward.Remember the fire comes out with a lot of force thats why the rocket is able to fly because of the thrust. The body of the rocket is a device that can stay in space and float in there which allows the rocket to stay in space. The fire thrusts the rocket up but only to get out of earths atmosphere because earth has gravity space doesn't. In space the rocket does the rest of the work which is floating in a place without gravity. hope this helped!
