A booster is a type of rocket used to assist in putting larger payloads into orbit. Use with the [rocket] tag any any other relevant launch vehicle tags
Booster rockets are used to send a larger lifting rocket into orbit. The boosters then fall away once they reach their designated altitude (in some cases they are recovered for reuse) Pictured below: booster rockets fall away from an Ares V rocket (NASA illustration)
