The space rocket is one of the first space-capable vehicles that can be constructed. It requires only resources found on every habitable world (meaning no eludium). The space rocket has one passenger seat, so it can hold either a passenger or a cargo container (like a crate).
Space rockets use rocket drive propulsion and therefore does not defy gravity like gravity drive vehicles and spacecraft. Important to note is not a space rocket is not fast enough to escape the gravity of some supergiant stars. In this case it is suggested to not leave the local gravity well.
It is aerodynamic and will go much faster in an atmosphere than a fighter or spacecraft without disintegrating due to atmospheric stress.
It is recommended to go through the Rocket Training story mission, before trying to to take of. Alternatively have a look at the relevant section of the Controls page.
