Choose one option below
Correct Answer: A
Explanation
American college professor and scientist Robert Goddard built and flew the world's first liquid propellant rocket on March 16, 1926. Its flight, though unimpressive (it climbed only 12.5 meters), was the forerunner of the Saturn V Moon rocket 43 years later.
Option A (Robert Goddard) is a valid choice, as he is considered one of the pioneers of modern rocketry and developed the first liquid-fueled rocket.
