How did the discovery of liquid fuel by Robert Goddard help new technologies develop to explore space?
He did not discover liquid fuels, they already existed and were used to power many vehicles (e.g. cars, airplanes, zeppelins, fuel oil burning steam locomotives). He just made use of some of them (e.g. alcohol, gasoline, kerosene) to fuel rockets. Also Robert Goddard was not the first to work on liquid fueled rockets, just the first in the US (and his work was almost completely ignored in the US, the first official US interest in liquid fueled rockets came following WW2 when we brought Nazi rocket designers to the US, Robert Goddard's work was never resumed after WW2). The rocket technologies used by the US space program were almost entirely derived from Nazi designs, not Robert Goddard's designs.

What happened to Robert Goddard in 1926?
Robert Hutchings Goddard, Ph.D. (October 5, 1882 - August 10, 1945), was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, USA. He was a professor and scientist, and pioneer in the field of controlled, liquid-fueled rocketry. He launched the world's first liquid-fueled rocket on March 16, 1926. From 1926 to 1941, he and his team launched rockets that attained speeds of up to 885 km/h (550 mph). Though his work in the field was revolutionary, he was sometimes ridiculed for his theories. He received little public support during his lifetime, but would eventually come to be called one of the fathers of modern rocketry.See the Related Link(s) listed below for more information:
