речень: 5Today’s spacecraft use rockets and rockets use large quantities of propellant.
This cooling design became the basis of all modern liquid-propellant rocket motors.
You can stop the thrust of a liquid rocket by turning off the flow of propellants.
As propellant blasts out of the rocket in one direction, it pushes the spacecraft in the other.
In-space electric propulsion can reduce the amount of fuel, or propellant, needed by up to 90% compared to chemical propulsion systems.
