now, newtons's 3rd law states any reaction has an equal and opposite reaction, meaning when the gasses are ejected backward, the rocket is ejected forward. once the gas leaves the nozzle its useless and serves no other purpose.
welcome to reality
air only slows rockets down because of air resistance, in a vacuum the gasses would eject faster and there would be no air resistance, only helping the rocket
any problems you've thought of?
yes, rockets need something to push off of
its a propellant
i explained that yes
it propels something forward by pushing off something
yep
there isn't enough surface area to propel the rocket forward with nothing to push off of
it pushes off of the fuel coming out of the nozzle
just like in this latest video the air balloon will not move the car in a vacuum
propellant of the air won't push it forward just like a rocket won't
are you comparing blowing air to push a car to a rocket?
look at latest video
I'm comparing stuff that works in atmosphere that doesn't work in a vacuum
both throwing stuff out the back end to push it forward
(propellant)
a vacuum is one of the lightest things out there, so a helium balloon wouldn't float
a drone wont fly because there is no medium
vacuum is basically nothing
yep
a rocket, generating its own thrust, would fly in the vacuum
don't think so
thrust needs something to push off of
here, tell me how rockets work
what they do to generate thrust
they are propelling gas out the back end to push it forward
thats all you need to say
in an atmosphere they have something to push off of
and something to push into
which slows down the rocket
in a vacuum they have nothing to push off of
rocket won't move
and nothing to push into
you have a guy with a master's degree in technical physics
telling you it won't move
lol
did you watch the videos I linked?
