Rocket

/ˈrɑkət/ noun

Definition

A tall vehicle that shoots up into space very fast, carrying astronauts or satellites to the moon and stars.

Etymology

The word comes from an Italian word for a spinning wheel, because early rockets spun as they flew!

Kelly Says

Rockets are like super-fast spaceships that zoom up to the stars! They shoot fire out the bottom and carry brave astronauts on amazing adventures to space.
