This book explains the basic science and engineering behind how rockets work, from the principles of thrust and propulsion to the design of multistage launch vehicles. You will learn about the different types of rocket engines, the fuels that power them, and the physics that allows a rocket to overcome gravity and travel through the atmosphere and into space. The book also looks at how rockets are guided and controlled, and how they are used for satellite launches, crewed missions, and scientific exploration.
