First Cosmic Velocity:
Escape velocity (ve):
Escape velocity is a term that signifies how fast something must be going to be able to escape the gravitational field of a planet or object. This is critical to rockets being able to actually reach space and orbit.
Earth's escape velocity is 25,000 mph.
You must reach 13 million miles to finally escape all of Earth's gravity.
You can not escape Earth if you are going any slower than 25,000 miles through the gravitational field of Earth.
