A slim, light body and a powerful motor.
Yes, both work by action/reaction. Model rockets are just much smaller, thus have much less fuel, so can't go near as high or as far.
Apogee Rockets, Estes Rockets, Discount Rocketry, Rocket Fun, and Red Arrow Hobbies are just a few of the stores that sell model rockets and model rocket supplies.
There are mainly two types of model rockets: pre-assembled or ready-to-fly rockets that require minimal or no construction, and model rocket kits that require assembly. Model rocket kits can be further categorized based on their complexity and size, ranging from beginner kits to advanced high-power rockets.
Most model rockets do not come with glue. It also depends on which type you are purchasing and where you are purchasing it from. Try calling a store or company and asking if their model rockets come with the glue.

Rockets do not use gasoline, it burns too slow. Model rockets use a fast burning solid pellet. -When the pellet is finished burning the rocket will coast for a while before turning and falling to earth, or ejecting it's parachute if equipped.
The mission statement of Estes Rockets is to provide innovative model rockets. They want their consumers to enjoy their products, which can be purchased from their webpage.

Yes, I would say based on my research, model rockets are safe for children. The site, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_rocket, quotes, "Model rocketry is a safe and widespread hobby."
Yes. The space shuttle uses rockets in space to manuever.
All rockets use the same fuel and US has used the same platform for ages. If you mean model rockets, D engines are the most powerful.
