See where it says active?

Click that to turn it off, as the rigid body's active at the moment.

You can always have a look in the help files if you get stuck on something like that.

Thats because you've switched the rigid body off.

What is it your trying to do? Use fields to blast off the rocket???

If so the rigid body needs to be on for fileds to affect it.

Have a look in the help files they go into detail of what each thing does.
