How long does it take the space shuttle to reach space stations?
It takes the Shuttle about 2 days to reach the International Space Station.
How long to get to space station by space shuttle?
Because the space station is in such a bad orbit for US spacecraft to launch to, it takes about 2 days in space for the shuttle to rendevous with the space station. The space station was built by the US & Russians, spacecraft from both countries had to be able to send supplies up on a regular basis, so the orbit of the ISS is difficult for the shuttle to reach.
How long does it take the space shuttle to reach outer space from launch?
It takes about 8 minutes from launch for the shuttle to reach space. How is that for speed? Once in space, the space shuttle and the International Space Station orbit the Earth about 16 times a day. They are actually traveling faster than a bullet! That fast rate of speed along with Earth's gravity keep them in orbit around our planet
How long does it take to travel from space station to earth in a shuttle?
figure it out tard
How long does it take to reach the moon in a space shuttle?
it takes 3 days to reach the moon

How long would it take for a space shuttle to reach space?
It could not, the shuttle cannot leave low earth orbit
How long space shuttle takes to back earth from international space station?
5 mins
Can astronauts work in a space shuttle or space station for long periods of time?
we can not suvive later

How long does it take to reach the moon in a space shuttle?
it takes 3 days to reach the moon
How long does it take the space shuttle to go into space?
The limit of outer space is only 100 km high. Flying with the space shuttle, the trips takes roughly about 8 and a half minutes. but that doesn't include orbit insertion. To reach the International Space Station (ISS) it takes 2 full days!
How long does it take the space shuttle to reach the moons orbit?
The space shuttle was designed for low earth orbit (between 200-300 nautical miles) and could not reach the moon.
How long does it take to get outer space?
It takes approximately 150 seconds for a shuttle to get out of earthâ??s atmosphere. But, it takes a space shuttle three hours to reach outer space.
How long will it take to get to the International Space Station?
It takes 2 days. You might think that that's a long time for a space shuttle to go to the space station. Especially when you know that it takes about 2 minutes for the space shuttle to go into space. But here's why: The space station is orbiting the earth, and so will the space shuttle when it goes into space. If it goes faster though, it will fly away from the earth's atmosphere and get lost in outer space. So the Space Shuttle goes slightly faster so it will catch up, but not too fast so that it will fly off into outer space. That's why it takes 2 days.
