Any amount of thrust that's greater than the weight of the rocket vehicle will

lift it off of the ground and accelerate it upward. If you keep it up long enough,

the vehicle will be in space.

What is thrust capacity?

Thrust Capacity is how much thrust it can take :D


Why does a rocket need a large thrust on take off from the earth?

A rocket needs a large thrust on takeoff from Earth to overcome the force of gravity pulling it down. The large thrust is necessary to generate enough speed to reach escape velocity and break free from Earth's gravitational pull. Once the rocket is in space, it needs less thrust to maintain its course.


What is used to lift from a planet on a journey into space called?

A spacecraft or rocket is used to lift off from a planet on a journey into space. The rocket engines provide the necessary thrust to overcome Earth's gravity and propel the spacecraft into space.


How does a rocket ship take off from the ground?

A rocket ship takes off from the ground by igniting its engines to produce thrust. The thrust pushes the rocket upward, overcoming Earth's gravitational pull. As the rocket accelerates, it gains the speed needed to break free from the Earth's atmosphere and enter space.


How many tons of thrust does a space shuttle need in order to take off?

It takes 35000 tons of force to pull out the Earth's atmoshpere and 83000000000 tons to pull out of Jupiter


How much hp does it take to put a manned rocket into space?

The approximate minimum power required to put a manned rocket into space is around 2 million horsepower. This power is needed to overcome Earth's gravity, propel the rocket to the necessary speed to enter orbit, and provide thrust for the journey.


What is the amount of energy required for a space shuttle take off?

7,000,000 pounds of thrust.


How much time does it take for a space shuttle to get to the moon?

Space shuttles were built for low earth orbit. Not to goto the moon


How does a rocket take off from Earth?

A rocket takes off from Earth by igniting its engines to produce thrust, which propels it upwards against the force of gravity. The thrust generated must be greater than the force of gravity in order for the rocket to overcome Earth's gravitational pull and lift off into space. Once the rocket reaches a certain speed and altitude, it can transition to its intended trajectory.


How do you take off on Google earth flight simulator on MacBook Pro?

fn+UP ARROW Thrust up (take off) fn+DOWN ARROW Thrust down (slow down)


How does a spacecraft launch from earth?

the fuel needed is huge but you need to take in the power and the amount of thrust


What would happen if the thrust of the rocket at take-off was not enough to put the rocket in orbit around the earth?

If the thrust of the rocket at take-off is not enough to put the rocket in orbit around the Earth, it will not be able to overcome the gravitational pull of the Earth and achieve the necessary velocity to stay in orbit. The rocket would likely fall back to Earth due to gravity.
