Rocket engines are machines that produce thrust to propel a vehicle through space. They are used in a variety of applications, including launching satellites into orbit, sending spacecraft to other planets, and providing power for space exploration vehicles. Rocket engines work by expelling mass in the form of hot gas, which creates a reaction force that propels the vehicle forward.
