Alright kiddo, so you know how you have those toy cars that you can push and they go really fast? Well, solid rockets are kind of like that.
But instead of using your hand to push the toy car, solid rockets use something called fuel that's stuffed inside the rocket. The fuel is like the energy that the rocket needs to zoom off into space, just like how your toy car needs your push to go.
The rocket has a special part called the nozzle that helps the fuel blast out of the back of the rocket really fast. When the fuel is burned, it creates hot gas that shoots out of the nozzle and propels the rocket forward.
So, in a way, solid rockets are like big, powerful toy cars that can go really, really fast and travel really far. They're used for space missions and launching satellites into orbit.
