[[File:Rocket.jpg|thumb|A Tier 1 Rocket, on launch pad]]
The [[Rocket]] is a vehicle added by the [[Galacticraft]] mod that enables travel to different planets. These planets often contain [[Ore Generation|ore veins]] and [[Underground Fluid|underground fluid veins]] which are inaccessible in other dimensions and are required for [[Tier]] progression.

The T9 planets require a [[Mothership]] and Shuttle Rockets to travel to.
== Questbook ==
The Better Questing quest tab for rockets, "Space Race", unlocks upon completing the [[IV]] Circuits and [[HV]] Assembling Machine quests in the [[HV]] quest tab. It contains the progression for rocket tiers, space survival systems, and rocket fuels, starting with a quest to craft the NASA Workbench.
== Space Travel ==
=== Building Launchpad ===
The Rocket requires [[Rocket#Rocket Fuels|rocket fuel]] and a launch pad to launch.
* A launch pad is formed by placing a 3x3 square on the ground of [[Galacticraft]] Launch Pads. Right click to place a rocket on the launch pad.
* A [[Galacticraft]] [[Fuel Loader]] can be placed next to the launch pad. It requires 91 EU/s to run. Once a rocket is placed on the launch pad, the Fuel Loader will pipe fuel from its tank into the rocket. A Fuel Loader can be filled with Galacticraft Liquid Canisters or piped in through a tank. Cells will be consumed by the fuel loader. All tiers of rocket hold enough fuel capacity for at least one round trip.
=== Rocket Controls ===
* Interact with the rocket to enter it
* Interact again or sneak to leave it
* While on the rocket, press space to ignite the rocket and begin a launch; begins a 20-second countdown to launch, which cannot be cancelled.
* By default, the key to view the inventory/fuel of the rocket is unbound. It can be found as the "Open Spaceship Inventory" key in the Minecraft Controls menu.
* WASD to steer the rocket while it is flying.
=== Launch Process ===
During the 20-second ignition period, the rocket produces 10 pollution/sec and will begin to shake and emit white smoke particles. After the launch begins, the launchpads will break, and the rocket will fly straight up without player steering. While the rocket is flying, it will produce 1000 pollution/sec. A GUI indicator on the left side of the screen will display the rocket's height relative to the world. If the rocket hits any blocks, it will stall and waste fuel, requiring player steering. If a rocket runs out of fuel while launching, it will explode.
Upon reaching maximum height (y~1100 for the overworld), the player will be transported away from their current dimension and be shown a catalog of solar systems and planets. Clicking on a planet allows the player to build a [[Space Station]] there or launch there as the destination on the upper right hand side. Clicking on the planet again will zoom in on it and display its moons and space stations, which can also be launched to. The tier requirement of a launch is listed on the top of the screen; insufficient tier requirements prevent selecting a planet as a destination.
Upon selecting a destination, the destination will be loaded in, and the player will descend riding some form of a Lunar Lander (Parachute, Lunar Lander, Landing Balloons, etc.). For the [[Moon]], the player must press space to expend fuel and slow down the Lunar Lander to a descent rate slower than -20m/s to prevent an explosive crash landing. Upon landing, the player can exit the Lander by sneaking. The Lunar Lander will hold the rocket (with its fuel) and launchpads, used for a return flight. Punch to break it like a boat.
=== Moon Travel Checklist ===

== Crafting a Tier 1 Rocket ==
=== NASA Workbench ===
The NASA Workbench is used to make rockets and other Galacticraft vehicles. Notable crafting components used to make the NASA Workbench include an [[HV]] Assembling Machine, 2 [[IV]] [[Circuits]], 3 [[EV]] Circuits, [[Energetic Alloy]] frame boxes, and 6 Nether Star Plates (requiring 9 [[Nether Star|Nether Stars]] for a Block of Nether Star).
=== Implosion Compressor ===
The [[Implosion Compressor]] is required to craft Galacticraft compressed metal plates, which are used in rockets and oxygen systems.
=== Storage Rockets ===
In the T1 Rocket craft, there is an optional slot below the rocket control computer to add a copper, iron, or gold chest into (these recipes are also available in [[NEI]]). This will add storage space to the rocket, but it will not be detected by the T1 Rocket quest in the Space Race tab. These can be converted to the normal rocket in a crafting grid.
== Crafting Tier 2+ Rockets ==
[[File:Moon Dungeon.png|thumb|Entrance to a Moon Dungeon]]
The [[Rocket#Crafting a Tier 1 Rocket|NASA Workbench]] requires new schematics to craft higher tiers of rockets. These schematics are found in dungeons on planets in tier order. Tier 2 rocket schematics, for example, can be found in the reward room of Moon Dungeons. Dungeon entrances are deep holes on the surface that have unnatural brick blocks on the bottom.
Higher tiers of rockets require different kinds of [[Rocket Fuel|Rocket Fuels]].

|}
== Trivia ==
* In 2.1.1.0 additional rocket fuels were added that could be made in the [[Large Chemical Reactor]] as an alternative to the rocket fuels made in the GT++ [[Chemical Plant]]. In 2.2.0.0 their recipes were removed, but could still be used as rocket fuels. As of 2.6.1, they no longer appear in [[NEI]] and likely have been removed.
