rocket science
Rocket science involves designing and building vehicles that travel beyond Earth's atmosphere using controlled propulsion systems. It requires understanding physics principles like Newton’s laws, especially how force and motion work, to create enough thrust to overcome Earth's gravity. Rockets carry fuel and payloads, and their engines burn fuel rapidly to produce the necessary force. Engineers consider aerodynamics, materials, and navigation to ensure a safe journey into space. While complex, the core idea is creating controlled, high-speed motion to reach destinations beyond our planet.
