The first true rocket, developed by the Chinese in the 13th century, demonstrated basic propulsion principles but was limited in its effectiveness and design. However, the first successful modern rocket is often credited to Robert H. Goddard, who launched a liquid-fueled rocket in 1926. This rocket achieved a height of 41 feet and marked a significant milestone in rocketry, paving the way for future advancements in space exploration. While not perfect, Goddard's launch is considered a success in the context of its time.
The first successful rocket is known as the V-2 rocket, developed by Nazi Germany during World War II. It was the world's first long-range guided ballistic missile and laid the foundation for future rocket technology.
-- The gunpowder rocket was invented around 500 BCE. -- The first successful flight of an airplane was in 1903. So the rocket sneaked past the airplane in line by about 2,400 years.
The first launch from Nell the Rocket was successful, reaching high altitudes and demonstrating the viability of the rocket design. The data collected from the launch helped to refine future rocket designs and pave the way for advancements in rocket technology.
The first train called "The Rocket" was built by George Stephenson and his son Robert in 1829 for the Liverpool and Manchester Railway in England. It is considered one of the first successful steam locomotives.
The Soviet Union (Russia) was the first country to launch a successful space rocket, the R-7.

The thing that was so unique was that it was the first successful liquid-fueled rocket.
The first train called "The Rocket" was built by George Stephenson and his son Robert in 1829 for the Liverpool and Manchester Railway in England. It is considered one of the first successful steam locomotives.
Developed at Peenemunde, its first successful launch was on 3 October 1942.
The Soviet Union (Russia) was the first country to launch a successful space rocket, the R-7.
Joseph Godard did not invent the rocket. The father of modern rocketry was Robert Goddard. He launched the first successful liquid fueled rocket March 16, 1926
The first successful space rocket, capable of reaching the edge of space, was the German V-2 rocket developed by Wernher von Braun and his team during World War II. It was later used by the United States in their rocket program.
KNO3+C12H22O11= KNO2+CO2+H20.... basically potassium nitrate and sugar.
In July 1950 NASA launched their first rocket into space, the Bumper 2.Launched under the direction of the General Electric Company, Bumper 2 was used primarily for testing rocket systems and for research on the upper atmosphere.
