The development of liquid rocket fuel is credited to Dr. Robert H. Goddard, an American physicist and engineer often referred to as the "father of modern rocketry." Goddard conducted extensive research and experiments on rocket propulsion in the early 20th century. In 1926, he successfully launched the world's first liquid-fueled rocket in Auburn, Massachusetts.
The rocket Goddard launched used liquid oxygen (LOX) as the oxidizer and gasoline as the fuel. This achievement marked a significant milestone in the history of rocketry, as it demonstrated the feasibility of using liquid propellants for powering rockets. Goddard continued to make advancements in rocket technology, and his work laid the foundation for the development of liquid rocket engines that played a crucial role in subsequent space exploration efforts.

so it wont way the rocket
Liquid Oxygen and Liquid Hydrogen are used as rocket fuel as it is the most effecient way to thrust rockets into space, Liquid Nitrogen is not transported into space.
No, in the rockets that NASA uses to launch vehicles into space they use liquid oxygen, as well as liquid hydrogen as rocket fuel.
It could be, but liquid oxygen works better. It could be made to work in solid rocket boosters, but those usually use ammonium perchlorate instead, because it can provide more energy.
The basis for almost all Walter rocket motors is hydrogen peroxide. With the chemical formula of (H2O2) it is an oxygen rich liquid which, upon decomposition, gives out heat at a rate equivalent to gunpowder. ROCKET FUEL As well as methane and diesel fuel
Rocket fuel is either liquid or solid. Other kinds are being developed.

liquid fuel
There are solid rocket fuels, and there are liquid rocket fuels.
A liquid-fuel rocket or a liquid rocket is a rocket with an engine that uses propellants in liquid form.
