Does it really matter?
Oh yes, it really really matters.
The only thing that matters is that the mass is being pushed out the back.
It's HOW it is pushed. You keep side stepping this. Why?
Tell me what pushes it out of the back?
The mass doesn't even need to be a gas. It could just as easily be a liquid like water through a fire hose or a solid mass like a bullet from a gun.
It doesn't matter. We are dealing with a space vacuum as we are told and rockets expelling gases by some means into the vacuum and somehow also pushing the opposite way to push the rocket.
I want to know how and why it pushes the other way when the arse end is open to what we are told is a vacuum.
Gasses push against everything that they touch.
Yes they do in normal every day Earthly atmospheric ways or when they are compressed into a SEALED container.
We are dealing with what we are told, is space and its vacuum, as we are told.
In the case of liquid fuel rocket engines, the propellant burns inside the combustion chamber creating very hot, expanding gasses that push against the walls of the combustion chamber.
The expanding gasses are pushed through the opening (throat) and as a result, the rocket is pushed the other way.
How are they pushed through the opening to be expelled into the space vacuum that we are told is in space?
All of the processes that we are really interested in happen inside the rocket engine. What happens outside the rocket engine doesn't matter in the slightest.
Apparently with your adhered to laws of rocketry in vacuums they don't, but the truth is far different...far far different, because what happens outside of the rocket from the inner nozzle to the atmosphere, is extremely pertinent to the operation of that rocket.
It works fine in atmosphere but would fail in a space vacuum, as we are told a space vacuum is.
No matter how much it's dressed up and how many mathematical equations, plus gobbledygook is thrown at the space rocket, it will always remain a fantasy. A clever little story.A ruse. A dupe. A sort of brainwashing mind numbing fantasy.
Fantasy is great for entertainment and leisure. the issue is when the fantasy is sold to us all as a TRUTH - and we are basically forced or even ridiculed into buying into it. Some people buy into it without bothering to question. I call these people, trekkies, because they court fantasy and reject logical truth's.
