Rockets take off to carry things (called payloads) into space.

Do you mean 'how' do rockets take off, or how do rockets work?

Where do most rockets take off from?

Most rockets take off from space launch facilities, such as the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, or the Guiana Space Centre in French Guiana. These facilities are specifically designed for launching rockets into space safely.


What kind of fuel does rockets take?

Rockets commonly use liquid propellants like liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen, or solid propellants like a mixture of a fuel and an oxidizer, such as ammonium perchlorate and powdered aluminum. These fuels provide the energy needed for the rockets to generate thrust and lift off into space.


What is name of the place where rockets are take off?

A place where rockets are launched is typically called a "spaceport" or "launch site." Some well-known launch sites include Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, and Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.


How much fuel does a rocket need to take off?

The amount of fuel a rocket needs to take off depends on its size, payload, and destination. However, rockets are designed to be as fuel-efficient as possible to maximize payload capacity and range. The fuel needed for a rocket launch is carefully calculated by engineers to ensure a successful mission.


What is the difference between solid rockets and liquid rockets?

Solid rockets use solid propellant that is already mixed together and cannot be turned off once ignited, providing simplicity and reliability but less flexibility in performance control. Liquid rockets use a liquid propellant that can be precisely controlled and shut off, offering better performance and efficiency but requiring more complex systems for fuel storage, management, and engine design.

How long would it take in ruby for the space center rockets to take off in Pokemon ruby?

Original Answer Continueously,it never stops. My answer Not true mine is on 30 successful rockets but when it gets to 100 go inside and you can get a rocket + the number of lift offs goes up about 1 every 5 hours
