Rockets push against themselves they don't push against the air. That how they get there momentum. But I'll leave it up to these three guys. They explain it more in detail and its easy to understand.
Rockets don't get thrust by pushing against the air. Rockets get thrust by pushing against the rocket on one side and pushing against nothing on the other side of an explosion.
The rocket ejects a mass of burned fuel to produce a force. The force produced is proportional to the amount the mass of the combustion products (the exhaust) was accelerated. This follows from F=ma (Force = mass x acceleration)
So, the more you accelerate the exhaust, the more force is applied to the rocket.
Imagine you are floating in space. If you take off a shoe and throw it away from you really fast, you will move in the opposite direction from your shoe. You can even do this without going into space if you are standing on a very low friction surface like ice.
Also, the shape of the rocket exhaust nozzle is made or 'tuned' in such a way that it captures the expanding gasses escaping the combustion chamber of the rocket engine as efficiently as possible.
What else can I help you with?
Do rockets need fins in space?
No, rockets do not need fins in space because fins are used for stability and control in Earth's atmosphere, not in the vacuum of space. In space, rockets rely on thrusters for maneuvering and direction control.
How do rockets move in space?
Rockets move in space by expelling gas at high speeds through their engines. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. So when the rocket expels gas in one direction, it propels itself in the opposite direction.
How did the space shuttle try to move in space?
The shuttle moved by the use of thruster rockets.
How do spacecraft move?
They use big fuel powered rockets that generate a huge amount of thrust to propel them.
What is the most interesting thing about rockets?
One of the most interesting things about rockets is their ability to travel at incredibly high speeds to reach outer space and explore beyond Earth's atmosphere. Rockets also rely on powerful engines and complex systems to achieve controlled propulsion and navigate through the vacuum of space. Additionally, rockets have played a crucial role in advancing our understanding of the universe and enabling human space exploration.
How does a satellites move in space when its vacuum?
well space is like a vacuum you cant escape it and sound wave do not travel in space but space isn't literally a vacuum so they move by rockets and the gravity of earth
Can rockets be launched in vacuum?
Yes. Rockets have both a fuel and an oxidizing agent, so they don't need air.
Are rockets and jet engines the same?
No. Jet engines draw oxygen from the atmosphere to mix and burn with jet fuel, and cannot function in a vacuum. Rockets carry their own oxygen, and can travel in the vacuum of space.
Do rockets need fins in space?
No, rockets do not need fins in space because fins are used for stability and control in Earth's atmosphere, not in the vacuum of space. In space, rockets rely on thrusters for maneuvering and direction control.

How rockets help us explore space?
Rockets provide force that can propel ships forward, even in the near vacuum conditions of space. Propellers can provide force only in a substantial atmosphere.
Do sound waves move in a vacuum?
No.
What objects can move in a vacuum?
Objects that can move in a vacuum are those that do not require air or any other medium to travel, such as light, spacecraft, and particles.
How many ways can a rocket move?
Rockets move 4 different ways. Left, Right, Up, and Down
How do you accelerate an object in a vacuum?
In a vacuum, an object can be accelerated by applying an external force to it. This force can be achieved using mechanisms such as rockets, thrusters, or electromagnetic propulsion systems. Without air resistance or friction in a vacuum, the object's acceleration will depend solely on the magnitude of the applied force.
Why do the particles move faster in a vacuum?
In a vacuum, there is no air resistance or friction to slow down the particles, allowing them to move faster without any impediments. This lack of resistance enables the particles to move freely and at their maximum speed.
Where are the two rockets talking on mt ember?
thay move later in the game
