A cryogenic rocket engine is a rocket engine that uses a cryogenic fuel or oxidizer, that is, its fuel or oxidizer (or both) are gases liquefied and stored at very low temperatures.[1] Notably, these engines were one of the main factors of the ultimate success in reaching the Moon by the Saturn V rocket.[1]

The nice thing about cryogenic rocket engines is that you can turn them off.
