Cygnus X-1 was discovered in 1964 by astronomers Tom Bolton and Chuck Gulkis at the University of Toronto. They identified it as a strong X-ray source in the constellation Cygnus, using data from the U.S. Aerobee suborbital rocket.
I is nearly impossible to put a date on the first unmanned rocket, because the chinese were building unmanned rockets before we discovered them. By the time of the Revolutionary War in America, unmanned rockets were a weapon of war used by the British.
Robert Goddard invented rocket fuel by experimenting with various combinations of liquid oxygen and gasoline in his rockets. Through trial and error, he discovered the optimal mixture that produced the most efficient propulsion for his rockets. Goddard's pioneering work laid the foundation for modern rocket propulsion systems.
The rocket that came before the Mercury rocket was the Redstone rocket. The Redstone rocket was used for suborbital flights before the Mercury program began.
During a rocket launch, the thrust of the rocket engine is greater than the weight of the rocket. This is necessary for the rocket to overcome Earth's gravitational pull and lift off into space. The thrust generated pushes the rocket upwards while gravity pulls it down.

someone named howard Lynn discovered it in a rocket ship
The first record of rocket use was by the Chinese, shortly after gunpowder was discovered in China.
Prehistoric human beings, when they discovered fire.
since I'm a genius i physically discovered that to build a better and faster rocket everything matched 42 so was every expermint i tested the answer was 42 i discovered it

What powers a rocket? The immediate answer that comes to mind is of course: rocket fuel. The kind of rocket fuel came with the invention of the rocket by the Chinese in the 13th century. They had previously previously discovered an explosive compound called gunpowder. As they continued to find both military and commercial uses for it, they eventually came up with a variant of the original formula that became the first rocket fuel.

A good place to check this is this website: http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/blmissile.htm There is a discussion as to where it was first discovered, the Mongols, Arabs or Germans.
a past of a rocket is a past of a rocket
Your ancestors and mine. It was not an idea, it was a reality, they were visited by these spacemen which could have been mistaken as "Gods" coming down from the heavens.
