    Rocket

    A rocket is a spacecraft or any projectile object that uses a rocket engine to move forward. Rockets are more efficient in the vacuum of space than in the Earth's atmosphere as their engines are powered by reactions that expel exhaust in the opposite direction of movement at high velocities.
