Perhaps a basic understanding of combustion is in order:

Fire Triangle

On Earth, our atmosphere (~78% N, ~21% O) provides the oxygen. In Space, a solid or liquid propellent rocket engine provides an oxidizer in the form of liquid Oxygen, or some other chemical compound that contains oxygen. Thus, the oxidizer provides the oxygen in lieu of the atmosphere

Conspiracy theories can be fun, but only when they are not objectively demonstrably false. You really should read up on this before you post anything else, lest you come across as willfully ignorant.

I'm fighting the same NWO conspiracists that President John Quincy Adams fought; the Lord tells us to “prove all things” and “test all things”... so in this post-Obama age, where conspiracies in government have proved the norm, my skepticism about lefty, Muslim loving NASA and space is well-founded.

The myth busters video has been debunked; same with the second one, where he didn't keep the meter in view the whole time. The problem with your own hypotheses is that matter expelled in a vacuum would be dispersed at an amazing rate of speed, and without walls, in boundless space, there would be nothing for the rockets to propel against,

except, if you believe NASA, maybe this giant astronaut in space?

Maybe he could throw the rocket or allow it to push off his head?

NASA is too funny. Note that the astronauts have no suits on to traverse the Van Allen Belt.
