really far back with the Chinese who invented gun powder
Sir William Congreve, 2nd Baronet was the inventor of the Congreve rockets. They were used by the British navy against the French fleet in Boulogne on October 8-9 of 1806.
Well, some would have it that Robt. Stevenson invented an engine that he called The Rocket. And Sinophiles would say that the Chinese had rockets hundreds of years ago. So perhaps Goddard was merely another person interested in the fun of rockets - they had already been invented. And good on him and his sense of fun, adventure and enquiry.
Bottle rockets were invented in ancient China during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD). The Chinese used them for celebrations and religious ceremonies.
Around 499 AD. The Chinese ignited saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal in hollow bamboo tubes to shoot projectiles - including rats. These rockets were actually called 'flaming rat rockets'.
The invention of the rocket traces back to ancient China, where gunpowder-filled tubes were used for military purposes. Over time, this technology evolved, and in the 20th century, scientists like Robert Goddard and Konstantin Tsiolkovsky made significant contributions to rocket development. Rockets were further propelled by advancements in World War II and the subsequent space race between the USA and USSR, leading to the development of modern rockets used for space exploration and satellite launches.
The first rockets were invented in China in the 9th and 13th centuries (A.D).
