No if it's a single-stage rocket, yes if it's a 2- or multi-stage rocket.
Differences: A single stage rocket uses all its fuel in one blast and only has one booster stage while space shuttles and multi stage rockets have more than one rocket. - Difference: A single stage rocket cannot go into space while a space shuttle and a multi stage rocket canDifference: In a multi stage rocket and space shuttle, there is more that one rocket that burns to lift the payload off the ground. After the Stage has used all its fuel and is no longer burning it drops off the other rockets (stages). In a single stage rocket, all the fuel is used in one stage.Similarity: Both space shuttles and multi stage rockets add junk into earths orbit. A multi stage rocket carries less weight because it drops the empty stages off after they have fully burned and then starts burning a new stage so that there is less weight to carry for the burning rocket so does a space shuttle; a single stage rocket dose not.Similarity: Multi stage rockets and space shuttles add space junk into the earths orbit when they enter space.Wikipedia's Top Contributor; Daxter17 =)Thanks for the e-mail's about the topics guys!
A rocket that has several stages,each smaller than the last.

a multistage rocket is a rocket. a rocket could be a multistage rocket. all multi-stage rockets are rockets, but not all rockets are multi-stage. For example the space misstions. They are all multi staged, but each stage is a rocket on its own.
well first you just put the helmet on :)

The first stage is jettisoned, to fall back to earth, as the fuel runs out.

A multistage rocket usually has 3 stages or sections.
A rocket that has several stages,each smaller than the last.
The first stage is jettisoned, to fall back to earth, as the fuel runs out.
The first stage ignites the rocket and propels it toward the atmosphere. After, the second stage would start up and follow the same course out to space. When the rocket is almost out of the atmosphere, the third stage would start up and take the rocket to where it needs to go, like the moon.
