Liquid Oxygen and liquid hydrogen are combined in a mixing chamber under pressure before being released into a large bell shaped combustion chamber. where the two fuels are ignited the combustion of the fuel under pressure creates a small explosion which creates a massive amount of thrust from all the gases released at once from the explosion of the two gases.

while taking off ,the power is met by liquid or solid fules
liquid fuel=mixture of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen
solid fuel=mixture of powdered aluminium and ammonium nitrate (or ammonium perchlorate)
when it has been put into orbit, the power is met by solar panels which can converts solar energy(visible+infrared) directly into electric energy

it carries tanks of hydrogen and oxygen. the hydrogen is burned in the presence of oxygen, producing thrust.
