It didn't. There are still plenty of launches scheduled as part of the US space program.
What has stopped for now is manned launches, that is, space flights that carry people.

How does a rocket help space exploration?
It allows astronaut's, Satellites and other items to be sent into space. The problem through is that rockets are basically fireworks. The fuel leaks out of the tank and is set on fire pushing the rocket skywards, but once the fuel has started burning it can't stop, so if anything goes wrong while going up into space your scuppered. A more reliable way of sending things into space would be to use a kind of plane/rocket ship that flies through the atmosphere like a plane and then uses thrusters to propel it once it's left the atmosphere. NASA has considered this and had one in planning, but they never got round to making one, but if they did, the risk factor for each mission would be reduced drastically as well as making space travel allot easier and cheaper. In the end, rockets are needed for the time being, but they arn't the best solution to space exploration.

A space probe is carried by a rocket into outer space What keeps the probe moving after the rocket no longer pushes it?
Sir Isac Newtons first law of motion The law of inertia an object in motion remainsthe same unless acted upon by an external force.In space there is no force to slow itdown so it keeps moving the same speed it was when the rockets stopped burning.In other words:No force is required to keep a moving object moving, as long as there's nothing actingon it to make it stop.

Why doesn't a rocket in space need to use an engine to keep moving in space?
Because there is no friction in space to slow the rocket down. Once the rocket is at its cruising speed, the engine can be switched off. Of course, that means that you have to use a different engine (pointing forwards) to slow down and stop the rocket since friction won't do it for you.

Why cant a pencil be used in space?
Pens require gravity to work so they stop working in space. pencils are also not used because when we use it saw dust is produced and if it enters the electronics there is chance for the rocket to fail and explode.
