I have a better question...
Exactly how do jet engines propel space craft in a vacuum?

I don’t think there is a jet engine typical.
It is liquid fueled I believe...

Think rockets and forget about jet engines once you get to the edge of the earth’s atmosphere. High flying aircraft like the SR-71 and U2 just barely get by, and they have specialized engines and body styles that let them still get lift and thrust at those altitudes.
