4. âą The first thing in a rocket was a dog and
its name was laika and died from over
heating. The first rocket which could fly
enough to get in space was the v2 missile
which was first lunched by the Germans in
1945. The first rocket which actually
launched something into space was used
to launch sputnik, the first satellite, on
October 4, 1957. The rocket that launched
sputnik was a R-7 ICBM rocket.

5. Rocket Propellant is a material that is used to
produce a chemical reaction. This reaction mass
that is ejected, typically at high speed, from a
rocket engine to produce a thrust. For those who
donât know what a thrust is, it is a sudden jolt up
or forwards.
In a chemical rocket, propellants undergo
chemical reactions to produce hot gas. For
smaller altitude, control thrusters, the
compressed gas escaped the spacecraft.

âą Project Apollo was one of the most expensive American scientific programs ever. It is estimated
to have cost $202 billion in present-day US dollars. It ran from 1961-1972
âą Project Skylab was the United States' first and only independently built space station. It ran from
1973-1979.

10. Space Station
A space station is a spacecraft capable of supporting a crew
which is designed to remain in space for long periods of time.
The two recent space stations were built in the years 1998 and
2011. They are called the International Space Station (ISS) and
the Tiangong 1.
The ISS is an artificial satellite in Low Earth Orbit. The ISS
components were launched by American Space Shuttles in the
year 1998.
The Tiangong 1 is Chinaâs first space station. It successfully
docked with a module in November 2011.
Up to ten people can stay in a space station for more than two
days.
The International Space Station is 108.5 meters by 72.8 meters.
It weighs 450 tons, which is the size of 450 small passenger
cars.
