Rocket

A rocket is a vehicle designed to travel through space, propelled by the expulsion of gas from its engines. It works on the principle of Newton's third law of motion: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When fuel burns and produces gas, the rocket pushes back against that gas, allowing it to move forward. Rockets are used for various purposes, including launching satellites, conducting scientific research, and space exploration. They can operate in the air and the vacuum of space, making them essential for our understanding of the universe beyond Earth.
