It cannot be stopped and reignited【C18】______desired(it could conceivably be stopped and reignited after a pre-calculated time of burning has e-lapsed. and its thrust cannot be varied. Because a solid-fuel rocket can be kept ready for a long time, most military missiles【C19】______solid fuels, but human-piloted spaceflight needs the fine adjustments that can【C20】______be provided by liquid fuels.
