How does a space rocket work?
|

A rocket motor propels a rocket by burning fuel mixed with an oxidiser. The oxidiser contains oxygen, which is necessary for burning. The Ariane V rocket burns hydrogen fuel with oxygen. The hot gas produced rushes out of the motor nozzles, forcing the rocket upward.
