Self- driving cars have already tested on public roads.

A rocket uses fuels to make power for the engine. The fuel is set on fire inside the rocket. As the

fuel burns, it creates gases that have great pressure. These gases are blasted out of the rocket engines. These gases all go out the bottom of the rocket engine where it is open. They come out so fast and with so much power that the rocket is pushed up. It is pushed up so hard that the rocket overcome the force of gravity, which always tries to keep everything on the ground. The force that pushes up against the front of the rocket is called thrust. Unlike an airplane, a rocket doesn’t use wings to help it fly. It just uses the power and force created by the burning fuel to make enough thrust.

124. How do the gases come out to make the rocket be pushed up?
