How will the mass of a rocket change when it has reached outer space?

NO. the rocket will not shrink,grow,compact,or spread out and stay same size.the stuff in it will stay the same,,,,,,,,,,but the weight will change because there is no gravity to pull down on it. (The mass of the rocket will change continuously from the time it leaves the launch pad until sometime after it has reached space. That's because of the fuel mass it loses, as the engines burn. But once the engines cut off, the vehicle's mass doesn't change.)


How do balloons get filled with air?

Balloons are filled with air by inserting a nozzle or the opening of the balloon into a source of air, such as a person's mouth, a pump, or an air compressor. When the air is blown or pumped into the balloon, it expands, causing the rubber or latex material to stretch. Once the desired size is reached, the opening is sealed, usually by tying a knot, to keep the air inside.
