We rather to waste a lot more money and time on making many rockets who repeat past experiments to perfection. Instead we could build a large Plasma Rocket space ship on the moon where it could be launch cheaper and safer.

Send astro-naults, scientists, & tourists from the moon as well,

What is the function for a rockets engine?

To launch the rocket off the ground and make it go fast.


Why does a rocket take more fuel to launch off the moon than earth?

Actually its the other way around, if a rocket were to launch off the moon it would take less fuel than if it had launched off of earth. It would take less fuel because the moon has lighter gravity.


Why do rockets take off?

Rockets take off to carry things (called payloads) into space. Do you mean 'how' do rockets take off, or how do rockets work?


How do rockets land on earth when they return from moon?

The capsule on the tip of the rocket detaches when it leaves the atmosphere of earth, lands on the moon, then the capsule blasts off the moon and lands in the ocean in a "splashdown".


What does the rocket takeoff from?

Your question is very broad. One of the things a rocket takes off from is called a launch pad. Launch pads are the place where rockets take off. But the things that cause it to take off are completely different. A rocket takes off or 'launches' from a concept called thrust. Thrust is when say I have a ten pound ball that I want to throw directly up in the air. I need to create 10 pounds of energy to launch it and then enough energy to actually get it to where I want to go. Those are the basic things that make a rocket launch.


Why is iron not recommended for space vehicles?

Because it's too heavy ! It would take much bigger and more powerful rockets to lift a craft made of iron off the launch-pad.


When was Launch Off to War created?

How would rockets take off from space if there is no launch pad?

Lauch pads aren't essential for take off. All a rocket needs to take off is thrust. If, by "rockets", you're referring to a propelled projectile, then rockets with no guidance capabilities need the lauch pad to establish a trajectory. In space, it's a different ballgame. With practically no gravity, a rocket launched from a launch pad similar to one here on Earth would also be lauched. With a lauch pad on Earth, the Earth mass keeps it from travelling in the opposite direction. A lauch pad in space would need thrust of its own to maintain position during a launch. Visit NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) site at http://www.jpl.nasa.gov for mind-blowing information on this and other space topics. They've got some cool toys there, too.


Why was Cape Canaveral Air Force Station chosen for rockets to take off and land there?

NASA needed a US launch location as close as possible to the Equator, and with convenient (shipping and rail) transportation, but remote from heavily-populated areas and with a safe abort location (the Atlantic Ocean) for any possible launch mishaps.
