Today's rockets are remarkable collections of human ingenuity that have their roots in the science and technology of the past.
By the 16th century rockets fell into a time of disuse as weapons of war, though they were still used for fireworks displays, and a German fireworks maker, Johann Schmidlap, invented the "step rocket," a multi-staged vehicle for lifting fireworks to higher altitudes.
Nearly all uses of rockets up to this time were for warfare or fireworks, but an interesting old Chinese legend reports the use of rockets as a means of transportation.

 AMZ - April 2000 - Rocket 88
Among rockabilly purists, Rocket 88 is virtually peerless in their reverence for rock ‘n’ roll’s formative years, when jump swing, country blues, and grindin’ rhythm ‘n’ blues began to collide in the mid-50’s.
While the band’s last couple of albums tried to capture some of their spontaneous performance commotion, their current disc is a clinic in recreating the sounds of the early rock classics in a sterling set of cover tunes.
Now, not only do Rocket 88 look the part, but the sound connected to their era (covering such classics as “Drinkin’ Wine Spodee Odee,” “The Girl Can’t Help It,” and “Rockin’ At Midnight”).
