When were other shuttles launched and why?
Other shuttles in the US space shuttle program were launched from 1981 to 2011. These launches were conducted to deploy satellites, conduct scientific research, and assemble the International Space Station. Each shuttle mission had specific objectives, such as deploying communication satellites, conducting space experiments, or transporting astronauts and cargo to and from the ISS.
Why do you have space shuttles?
The question is a little moot, since we don't have space shuttles any more.
What spacecraft can be used more then once?
space shuttles
Are there any more space shuttles in space?
No, the last space shuttle launched by the U.S., the shuttle Atlantis (STS-135), landed on July 21st, 2011. The only manned vehicles currently launching into space are Russian Soyuz vehicles servicing the ISS (International Space Station).
How are space stations useful?
Space shuttles are very useful objects. Take the International Space Station: It was launched into space to help us learn more about space, so we could send a human further into space and (crazy idea!) so we can live in space. People are already living in space because of science.
Is NASA creating another space shuttle?
No. Space shuttles are Too Dangerous: Challenger and Columbia, RIP. NASA is going to build a new rocket to send people in to space, but, there will be no more space shuttles.
Why the US space shuttles were built?
The US space shuttles were built to provide a more cost-effective and reusable way to transport astronauts and cargo to space, with the goal of making space missions more routine and accessible. They were also intended to help build and maintain the International Space Station.
How is nasa's space shuttles more intelligent?
NASA's Space Shuttles were designed with advanced systems and technology to handle the complexities of space travel, such as managing re-entry into Earth's atmosphere and docking with the International Space Station. These systems allowed for greater control and automation of various flight operations, making the shuttles more intelligent in terms of their ability to perform complex tasks in space. Additionally, the shuttles were equipped with sophisticated computers and sensors to assist astronauts during missions.
How many space shuttles have orbited earth?
Probably more than ten.
Can you take a space shuttle in to space more than once?
Yes, space shuttles were designed to be reusable for multiple missions. They were launched into space, landed back on Earth, and then refurbished for another mission. However, the space shuttle program has been retired, and new vehicles like SpaceX's Crew Dragon are now used for space missions.
