Those of "questionable knowledge" will be the scientists. You might think that rocket science is hard but:

Rocket Scientist:
Someone who understands Newton's Laws of motion and basic chemistry.

Rocket Engineer:
Someone who can design & build a device light enough to leave the earth but strong enough to withstand the forces needed to get it off the ground while coping with fuel at around -200°C and combustion at over 2000°C.
