A rocket is an elongated vehicle powered by a rocket engine that expels exhaust at high speed to create thrust, allowing it to fly even in the vacuum of space where there is no air. Rockets matter because they carry all their own fuel and don't need oxygen from the air to operate, making them uniquely capable of reaching space and beyond, unlike jet engines that depend on atmospheric air.
