Which fuel is used in rockets?

There are two three types of fuel used in rockets 1) Solid fuel - an aluminum powder used for an initial boost into space. 2) Liquid fuel - usually super-cold liquid hydrogen and oxygen is used is the Space Shuttle's main engines during launch. 3) Hypergolic fuel - Monomethylhydrazine and Nitrogen Tetroxide does not need a source of ignition. It is mainly used for maneuvering in space.
