Rockets are launched by igniting their engines, which produce thrust by expelling gases at high speed, following Newton's third law of motion. This thrust propels the rocket upward, overcoming Earth's gravitational pull. To escape Earth’s gravity, a rocket must reach a specific velocity known as escape velocity, approximately 11.2 kilometers per second (about 25,000 miles per hour). Once it achieves this speed and altitude, the rocket can enter orbit or travel into space.
To reach outer space, rockets must escape the force of gravity. Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards the center of a mass, such as the Earth. Rockets need to generate enough thrust to overcome Earth's gravity and reach escape velocity to enter outer space.
Satellites are launched into space using rockets, which provide the necessary thrust to carry them beyond Earth's atmosphere. Rockets can be launched from the ground, sea, or air. Once in space, the satellite is released and maneuvered into its desired orbit.

Rockets escape Earth's gravitational pull by achieving enough velocity to overcome gravity. They generate thrust by burning fuel, propelling them upward until they reach a speed of around 11 km/s (25,000 mph) - the minimum speed needed to break free from Earth's gravity and reach space.
If we are only referring to 1999 on, Russia has launched the most rockets. Please note, these numbers are constantly changing.
India has launched approximately 74 satellite rockets.
Escape velocity from Earth depends only on the mass of the Earth and the distance from its center, not the mass or size of the rocket. All rockets need to reach the same escape velocity to leave Earth's gravitational pull, regardless of their size.
At the equator, the Earth spins faster; if the rocket is launched in the direction the Earth is spinning, this will save some fuel.
To reach outer space, rockets must escape the force of gravity. Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards the center of a mass, such as the Earth. Rockets need to generate enough thrust to overcome Earth's gravity and reach escape velocity to enter outer space.
Rockets can be launched from just about anywhere. But if the objective is to put something into orbit, or send it further out from earth, then the closer to the equator the launch is, the better. Equatorial launches "add" the "speed" of the earth's rotation to the equation, and this allows less fuel for the same payload, or more payload for the same fuel as would be used farther toward the poles. In the United States, NASA launches its rockets from Cape Canaveral in Florida.
Rockets are vehicles that carry payloads into space or orbit, while missiles are weapons designed to be launched at specific targets on Earth.

The newest rocket to have been launched is the Japanese H2B.
