A rocket is a missile, spacecraft, or other vehicle which gets thrusts from the engine of the rocket. In all rockets, the exhaust is formed completely from propellants carried within the rocket before use. Rocket engines work by action and reaction. Rocket engines push rockets forward simply by throwing their exhaust backwards extremely fast. Rockets for military and recreational uses date back to China in the 13th century. Significant scientific, interplanetary, and industrial use did not happen until the 20th century, when rocketry was the enabling technology of the Space Age, including getting to the moo n.





=__Steps __=

1. **If you are bringing your own launch pad (it will come with "starter kits"), set it up per the instructions**. Generally you open the base, slide the launch rod in, put the safety cap on the rod, and roll out the wire from the launch controller. 2. **Prepare the rocket**. Pull back the engine clip on the bottom of the rocket, slide the motor in, and put the clip back. Next put the igniter in and secure it with the plug, make sure the plug holds the igniter wires apart and that the igniter wires are far apart. Now, put 3 or 4 sheets of parachute wadding in through the top (either the nose cone will seperate from the rocket or the body tube will seperate in half), then fold the parachute as per diagrams on the instructions (for these small rockets, its pretty hard to mess up unless you forget the wadding. Then the parachute WILL melt). 3.**Disconnect the safety cap off of the launch rod and slide the rocket on, the rod should go through a cylindrical piece on the side of the rocket called the launch lug**. __4. **Connect the clips from the controller to the igniter wires**. Don't let the clips or the wires touch each other. __ __5. **Place the key in the launch controller**. Countdown "5... 4... 3... 2... 1... LAUNCH!" when you reach "LAUNCH", press the button. __ __6. **Chase your rocket once it lands, it can be reused if there's no damage**. Minor damage can usually be repaired. __

The difference in comparison to other recoil drives is that all the production of ejected drive medium (a superheated gas) components required to be kept on board of the rocket. It is used so no oxygen for oxidation. //

Later Hermann Oberth same regardless of the findings. //

<span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"> Newton's First law states that an object stays at rest until a force is exerted or it stays in motion until a force stops it. For ex. A book on a table with stay on the table in the same spot unless someone moves the book.

<span style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #404040; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 19px;">A really good example for Newton's 2nd Law of Motion that occurs everyday is the difference of energy needed when a fat person and a really skinny person stand up from a chair. The skinny person needs less energy than the fat person.

=Newton's Third Law= States: For every reaction there is an equal and opposite reaction. The force on the first object is in the opposite direction of the force on the second object,
