An engine that provides thrust directly through the burning of its fuel without requiring the intake of air.
A
rover
B
spacecraft
C
telescope
D
rocket
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Rocket engines are reaction engines, producing thrust by ejecting mass rearward, in accordance with Newton’s third law.

Detailed explanation-2: -The exhaust gases also contribute to engine power output through thrust production, although the amount of energy available for thrust is considerably reduced. Two basic types of turboprop engine are in use: fixed turbine and free turbine.

Detailed explanation-3: -To move an airplane through the air, thrust is generated by some kind of propulsion system. Most modern airliners use turbofan engines because of their high thrust and good fuel efficiency.

Detailed explanation-4: -Jet engine thrust is the force produced by an engine that acts on its aircraft mounts, to pull their plane forward in flight. It is readily measured by load cells when an engine is run in a test stand.
