Info

ocket Pronunciation: \rä-kət\ noun (It rocchetta) A vehicle, typically cylindrical, containing liquid or solid propellants which produce hot gases or ions that are ejected rearward through a nozzle and, in doing so, create an action force accompanied by an opposite and equal reaction force driving the vehicle forward. Because <strong>rocket</strong>s are self-contained, they are able to operate in outer space. 2
