The 38 pages that link to Rocket engine, each with the reason it gives.

• Ballistic missileRelated: It supplies the thrust that accelerates the missile during powered ascent.

• Combustion chamberRelated: Its chamber confines high-pressure combustion before gases expand through a nozzle.

• SpaceflightRelated: Rocket engines provide the thrust needed to launch vehicles and maneuver spacecraft.

• Surface-to-air missileRelated: Its thrust accelerates the missile toward an intercept.

• Launch vehicleRelated: Its thrust accelerates the vehicle against gravity and atmospheric drag.

• Mass flow rateRelated: Propellant mass flow rate and exhaust speed determine its thrust.

• Suborbital spaceflightRelated: Rocket thrust supplies the acceleration needed to climb above most of the atmosphere.

• Liquid oxygenRelated: Its combustion chamber mixes liquid oxygen with fuel to generate hot exhaust.

• Rocket propellantRelated: It burns or otherwise processes propellant and accelerates the resulting exhaust.

• Space explorationRelated: Rockets provide the thrust needed to escape Earth and maneuver in space.

• SpacecraftRelated: Rocket engines provide the thrust spacecraft need to launch, maneuver, and change orbit.

• Rocket-propelled grenadeRelated: The projectile’s motor accelerates it after launch.

• MissileRelated: Rocket engines propel many missiles without relying on atmospheric oxygen.
