Is it better to launch a rocket over water or land?
It is usually better to launch a rocket over land. That way, if the rocket crashes it won't hit any populated areas.
Why do people launch from the Kennedy Space center?
It saves on fuel. The reason we launch rockets from Florida as opposed to say, Long Island, New York, is that we are closer to the equator, the mid-point between the north and south poles. If you were to spin a basketball, you would see that the center rotates faster than the top or bottom of the ball. This means that when the rocket blasts off from the launch pad, it gets an extra boost from the rotation of the earth and that means less fuel needs to be used to lift off. Another reason is that the launch is done over water. If sonething were to happen to a rocket after lift-off, the rocket would come down over water and not land (remember the Space Shuttle).
How do space shuttle get into space?
space shuttle orbiters are launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. They must not only travel the ~250 miles to reach "space", they must accelerate to over 17,000 mph to maintain orbit around the Earth. The shuttle orbiter uses its 3 main engines along with a pair of solid rocket boosters to do this.

Thrust (due to solid or liquid fuel burning)
How do you get slow motion on Lego rock rocket power miners game?
go to the very first place on rock rocket then at the bottom there will be something green, with the mouse go over the crystals in this over green thing and it will come up with some crystals.line up the colored crystals in this order.red,orange,yellow,green then blue.
How do you get past the officer in the radio Tower in HeartGold?
You need to beat the first seven gyms first. After that, you need to go to the underground in Goldenrod (Which Team rocket has taken over) to get a Rocket uniform. Head to the tower, and talk to the rocket on the first floor. After you defeat Team rocket, you can access the whole tower. If you mean the Tower in Lavender Town, I don't think it's possible.

Who was the first animal to travel to space?
A dog from the Soviet Union, Laika, was launched in the Sputnik 2 rocket on November 3, 1957. There is some controversy over whether Laika was euthanised with poisoned food or was asphixiated on her flight, but she died on the craft. The craft was not meant to be retrievable, so she was destined to die in space.

You ask if Germany - in case of winning world war 2 - would have reached space technology? Yes - in fact Germans already reached "space" during the war - beeing the first ones producing jet and rocket fighters... and the V2 rocket actually flew very high before reaching the target... the German engineers were mainly participating (or even leading) the attemps of USA and Russia...
In an airplane the lift force is used to overcome weight in a model rocket is what used to over come weight?
Thrust, strong and powerfull
Are rockets being used today?
This current day? What sort of rocket do you mean? If you mean a major rocket launch, no. If you mean over a large period of time, yes rockets are used for launching satellites and space station ships etc.
