The primary rocket used by the United States for space exploration is the Space Launch System (SLS), developed by NASA. It is designed for deep space missions, including crewed missions to the Moon and Mars. Additionally, SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets are significant for commercial missions and resupply to the International Space Station.
The original US lunar missions were propelled by the huge Saturn V rocket.
The back part of a rocket is called the rocket nozzle. It is responsible for directing the flow of exhaust gases to generate thrust and propel the rocket forward.
The first rocket the US sent up into space was the Jupiter C launch vehicle and its payload was Explorer 1 the first American Satellite.
The structure that supports a rocket before launch is called a launch pad. It provides a stable platform for the rocket to stand on and facilitates the safe ignition and liftoff of the rocket.
The Apollo 11 Rocket was called "Saturn V" (Saturn 5). The Apollo 11 lander was called "Eagle".

A rocket powered projectile is typically called a rocket or a missile. It is a self-propelled, guided projectile that uses rocket propulsion to fly.
The back part of a rocket is called the rocket nozzle. It is responsible for directing the flow of exhaust gases to generate thrust and propel the rocket forward.
The propulsive force of a rocket engine is called thrust. It is the force that propels the rocket in the opposite direction to the exhaust expelled from the rocket engine.

The rocket that took humans to the moon was called Saturn V. It was used by NASA's Apollo program for the lunar missions in the 1960s and 1970s.
It's simply called the rocket body.
