《Rocket to outer space》

Japanese: 《宇宙空間へのロケット》 - うちゅうくうかんへのろけっと

[First step into space]

Meanwhile, in 1909, RH Goddard in the United States began researching rockets, and in 1919 he published a book called "How to Reach the Extremely High Earths," and he himself built and experimented with liquid-fuel rockets.
