Used in the production of orbital rockets. It is the second-most long-lasting of all the fuel types, beat only by Nuclear fuel. Rocket fuel can also be used in burner devices to provide 100MJ of energy, however this is slightly less efficient than using 10 solid fuels unless extra products are created using productivity modules.

10 rocket fuel are required for each rocket part, so 1000 rocket fuel are needed for each rocket launch. Additionally 50 rocket fuel are required for each satellite.
