If you can’t figure out that rocket motors produce their own oxygen while burning to create thrust I can’t help you any further.

Propeller move surrounding air, rocket combusts and moves fuel. Solved

This video proves that propeller propulsion is impossible in a vacuum...which we all already knew. Thank you for the useless demonstration.

Is this rage bait? High school physics explains this: propellers need air. Rockets don’t need air. The explosion is the push. Jesus Christ man you can’t be this dumb, stop grifting

The Internet is free people. Don't be a retard like this guy.... Propeller propulsion is impossible in a vacuum because a propeller needs an external medium like air or water to push against in order to create thrust Newton's Third Law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. A propeller acts like a rotating wing, grabbing air molecules and accelerating them backward. The backward push on the air creates a forward reaction on the blades. Lack of Air Molecules: A vacuum contains virtually no matter or air particles. Without air to capture, spin, and throw backward, the spinning blades of a propeller have nothing to act upon. No Pressure Difference: Propellers generate lift and thrust by creating a pressure difference between the front and back of their blades. This requires a surrounding gas or liquid that can be compressed and moved.

“”this is how rockets works” o yea? for real?

that's why they use rockets and not propellers. lol

Again. Classic example of how people think they just outsmart literally hundreds of years of people having done this stuff already, for the reason you say is fake. Get lost ya boneheads 💀

You don’t even have blue check which means this is not bait and you are retarded How the fuck something that need AIR to work is supposed to work WITHOUT AIR? Why THE FUCK do you think rockets use fuel and shit?

Rocket uses combustion, not air propulsion are you fucking retarded. You clearly don't understand the laws of motion, propellors don't push, they use air, and this is not how rockets fly.

Not knowing how to google “how do rockets work in space” in 2026…. You’re NGMI…..

It’s funny because this proves propulsion. A rocket uses ignited fuel and oxygen to propel itself, not propellers. So of fucking course the rocket is gonna move, because it’s using a force to move itself. It’s not relying on anything, it’s generating its energy.

Guess what. Propellers use air as propultion. Kinda like how propellers of boats move because they move watter from the spinning of the propeller. A rocket engine uses a different type of propultion. Rocket fuel is burned, pushes fuel out of the engines to move creating thrust

This isnt the correct test. They need to use a model rocket.

A drone flies specifically by creating areas of high pressure and low pressure in the air. And Newton did not say “something needs to push against something else to create motion.” He observed equal and opposite reactions.

RIGHT THATS HOW THEY FLY IN EARTH ATMOSPHERE MY DUDE YOU DO NOT USE PERPELLERS IN SPACE YOU CANT USE THAT TYPE OF PROPULSION YOU NEED SOMETHIN THROWN OUT THE BACK LIKE FIGHTER JETS DO IN ORDER TO PROPELL CAUSE EARTHS ATMOSPHERE IS THICK & FULL OF OXYGEN

Oh so you’re telling me the thing that needs air to create propulsion can’t do it in a setting with no air? Mind Fucking Blown. 😂😂😂

Drones generate lift by accelerating the atmosphere around it downwards, rockets work by creating their own air and pushing it downwards, which is why they work in a vacuum while propellers don’t

All you proved is that you can’t use AIR as propulsion in a vacuum. The physical material a shuttle pushes off of is the shuttle itself. I’d say do better research but you don’t believe that science is trustworthy anyway so I guess you’re doomed to stay ignorant. 🤷‍♂️

Well… yea. If you use propellers that push air down to make them fly they won’t work in a vaccume. If you create a fucking rocket engine it’ll work

Somethimes it's sad to see how stupid people are. How does this drone fly? By moving air with wind blades. You can't move air with windblades in a vacuum. That's why they use rockets in space..........

A prop pulls itself through the air like a screw. Rocket thrust pushes a vehicle forward by being repelled by the hot gas created aft of the vehicle. Goddamn people are fucking retarded!

research more, hope it helps you learn the fundamental of rocket propulsion system and how it really works. and moreover, space is real believe it or not, physics says it all. you're old enough to know the truth yourself so stop being s2pid 😑

Did Newton's third law of motion get disproven at some point?
