1. A toy rocket assemblage including a pair of tanks, containing a water solution, a cathode in one of said tanks and an anode in the other of said tanks, power;means for said anode and cathode to bring about electrolysis to generate hydrogen gas in the tank containing the cathode and oxygen gas in the tank containing the anode, a launch tube in communication with said tanks to receive the hydrogen and oxygen gases, a hollow rocket disposed over said launch tube and defining a chamber for receiving the mixture of the oxygen and hydrogen gases, means for igniting the gases in said launch tube to generate an explosive force to drive the rocket off said launch tube into the atmosphere. 2. A toy rocket assemblage as set forth in claim 1 in which the power source for said anode and cathode is a battery pack disposed adjacent said tank means. 3. A toy rocket assemblage as set forth in claim 1 in which the ignition means for said gases is a set of arc electrodes in said launch tube which electrodes receive power from a piezo ignition connected thereto. 4. A toy rocket assemblage as set forth in claim 3 in which each of the tank means are connected to the launch tube by conduit means that is controlled by a selection valve which valve moves between a closed position to in one position to regulate the flow of oxygen gas to the launch tube and to another position to regulate the flow of hydrogen to the launch tube. 5. A toy rocket assemblage as set forth in claim 4 whereby the tank, launch tube and rocket are supported on a launching pad. 6. A toy rocket assemblage including a self-contained tank means, an anode and a cathode in said tank means, a power supply for said anode and cathode to generate oxygen and hydrogen in said tank means, a launch tube in communication with said tank means to receive hydrogen and oxygen gases therefrom, a toy rocket disposed over said launch tube, and igniting means for exploding said oxygen and hydrogen mixture too drive said rocket off of said launch tube into the atmosphere. 7. A toy rocket assembly as set forth in claim 6 in which the launch tube includes a plenum that receives said hydrogen and oxygen gases, and the rocket includes a tubular portion that fits over the launch tube so that when the gases are ignited the explosion propels the rocket into the atmosphere off of said launch tube. 8. A toy rocket as set forth in claim 6 in which the anode and cathode are disposed in a single chamber. 9. A toy rocket assemblage as set forth in claim 6 in which the launch tube defines a plenum chamber into which the hydrogen and oxygen flows and the ignition means includes a pair of electrodes extending into said plenum and a piezo igniter for actuating said electrodes to ignite the mixture of oxygen and hydrogen gases in said plenum to propel the rocket into the atmosphere off of said launch tube. 10. A toy rocket assemblage including a frame means, tank means supported by said frame means, an anode and a cathode in said tank means, a power supply means in said frame means for supplying power to the anode and cathode to bring about the electrolysis of the water solution in said tank means to form oxygen and hydrogen, a launch tube supported by said frame means and defining a chamber in communication with the oxygen and hydrogen generated in said tank means, electrodes extending into said chamber, a rocket disposed over said launch tube, and power means for igniting said electrodes for creating an explosive mixture of said hydrogen and oxygen to drive the rocket off of said launch tube into the atmosphere. 11. A toy rocket assemblage as set forth in claim 10 in which the tank means include two separate tanks with the anode in one of said tanks and the cathode in the other of said tanks and the tank means are connected to the launch tube by conduit means that is controlled by a selection valve that controls the flow of oxygen and hydrogen to said chamber. 12. A toy rocket assemblage as set forth in claim 11 in which the power supply for said anode and cathode is located in said frame means and the ignition of said electrodes is provided by a piezo igniter.
