Everything about Multistage rocket
Most common type of rocket, used to launch satellites
A multistage rocket or step rocket is a launch vehicle that uses two or more rocket stages, each of which contains its own engines and propellant. A tandem or serial stage is mounted on top of another stage; a parallel stage is attached alongside another stage. The result is effectively two or more rockets stacked on top of or attached next to each other. Two-stage rockets are common, but rockets with as many as five separate stages have been successfully launched. Wikipedia →
