They take it with them in some form or another. Fireworks use oxidizing salts such as various nitrates and chlorates. Solid fuel rockets generally use ammonium perchlorate as an oxidizer while liquid fuel rockets carry liquid oxygen.

Why do rockets engines in space have to carry their own oxygen?

Fire needs oxygen in order to burn, and there is no oxygen in space, so rockets must take oxygen with them.

How many rockets can be launched in 3 days?

Surely at least thousands ARE launched everyday, if you include weapons and fireworks. But perhaps you are only interested in rockets that go into space.


Why do rockets need to carry a supply of oxygen?

Rockets need oxygen to facilitate the chemical reaction for generating thrust. By combining oxygen with fuel in the combustion chamber, rockets produce the hot gases needed to propel the vehicle through space. This enables rockets to overcome the lack of atmospheric oxygen present in space.

Chinese invented rockets?

They invented the rocket yes but not anything that went high enough to go into space, these were gun powdered rockets, the kind we use in fireworks displays, Not spacecraft.


Do rockets run out of oxygen in space?

Rockets carry onboard oxygen for combustion to generate thrust, so they can run out of oxygen if not enough is supplied. However, in space, rockets do not need oxygen from the atmosphere to operate as they bring their own supply. Once the oxygen stored onboard is consumed, the rocket will no longer be able to generate thrust and will not be able to maneuver or maintain its intended trajectory.


Why do space rockets carry a source of oxygen?

There is no oxygen in space, so spacecraft must carry oxygen with which to burn their fuel and, if they are manned, to allow the crew to breathe.


Uses of rockets?

Rockets are used for space exploration, satellite deployment, military defense, scientific research, and commercial transportation services. They are also used in fireworks displays, as well as for testing and launching various payloads into outer space.
