WHAT DOES BOOSTER ROCKET MEAN IN ENGLISH?

booster rocket

Booster (rocketry)

A booster rocket is either the first stage of a multi-stage launch vehicle, or else a strap-on rocket used to augment the core launch vehicle's takeoff thrust and payload capability. Boosters are generally necessary to launch spacecraft into Earth orbit or beyond. The booster is dropped to fall back to Earth once its fuel is expended, a point known as booster engine cut-off. The rest of the launch vehicle continues flight with its core or upper stage engines. The booster may be recovered and reused, as in the case of the Space Shuttle. Strap-on boosters are sometimes used to augment the payload or range capability of jet aircraft.
