What kind of fuel did the space shuttle use?
Liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.
What kind of fuel does a shuttle use?
The main three engines use liquid hydrogen and an oxygen oxidizer. These are delivered under pressure to fuel the main engines.A space shuttle uses a combination of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. Solid rocket boosters use a rubberized compound of aluminum and perchlorate oxidizer.Orbiter main engines use liquid hydrogen / liquid oxygen that is stored in the external tank.Hydrogen fuel is burned with oxygen-rocket engine.
What kind of fuel did the saturn v use?
It used liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen.
Is liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen bad for the environment?
liquid hydrogen and LOX (liquid oxygen) is normally use for liquid rocket propellents, so the making to use the materials is bad for the environment, since you need to build the gas tank and such. But the use of the liquid hydrogen and LOX merely produces water vapour which is no harm.
Why do rockets use liquid nitrogen?
Rockets typically use Liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen for fuel. I suspect this is what you are asking. I know of no rocket that uses liquid nitrogen.
Why do shuttles have liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen?
They use it for their fuel in most cases but not in all cases.
