We just learned about how Rocket Thrust Vectoring is changing the direction the rocket is going using thrust in different dirctions.
Another part of rocket science is Gimbaled Thrust.
This is a way for a rocket to tilt its nozzle to change the direction of the thrust for rocket thrust vectoring.
When the nozzle is tilted, it sends the rocket in a different path.
