What extends from about 400 kilometers outward for thousands of kilometers?

The Earth's exosphere extends from about 400 kilometers outward for thousands of kilometers. The exosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere where atoms and molecules are so far apart that they can travel long distances without colliding with one another. This region gradually transitions into outer space.


How does the rocket land on the earth?

A rocket typically lands back on Earth by either descending back through the atmosphere and deploying parachutes for a soft landing, or by performing a controlled landing using thrusters to slow down and land vertically, like SpaceX's Falcon 9 rockets do. The landing method depends on the design of the rocket and its intended purpose.
