Do spaceships travel around the earth faster going east to west rather than west to east?
Tscott28
Their direction has no bearing on their speed. Objects stay in orbit because of the attraction of earths gravity which has nothing to do with the earth's rotation on it's axis. If objects go too fast they fly off into space, too slow and they fall back to earth. Orbiting is a balancing act between the objects speed trying to fling it away from the earth and gravity trying to pull it down.

Why were spaceships invented?
Spaceships were invented so that people could travel and explore in the extreme environment called outer space.
How does spaceships invention help people?
They help human life forms travel to outer spacer's they help people to explore about the space.
How fast do spaceships go?
To break the pull of gravity and escape the earth's pull (escape velocity) you have to travel 7 miles per second or 25,000 mph.
Does the sun travel around the planets or do the planets travel around the sun?
The planets travel around the sun.
What is a space ship?
A spaceship is any vehicle that can leave the planet and travel in the vacuum of outer space. This can be as simple as a rocket or as complex as an intergalactic ship capable of running on antimatter. Modern spaceships are rocket-powered, but science is working on different types of fuel and propulsion, so you may see different sorts of spaceships in the near future.

Do the planets closest to the sun travel slower or faster around the sun?
faster
Will spaceships ever travel long distances into space?
Maybe someday, but not today
Why would car and airplanes be useful forms of transportation?
Because it is easier and faster to travel in or with rather than by foot or horse.
What is the difference between travel in 1500s and now?
in the 1500s they used alien spaceships now we use teleportation devices
How do the inner planets travel around the sun than the outer planets?
Inner planets travel faster than outer planets
Do snail or earthworms travel faster?
earthworms travel faster
Why can a car travel faster tahn a concrete road rather than a bumpy road?
Less resistance on a smooth concrete road.
If life exists in other solar systems then how can it reach earth as even alpha century which is the nearest star to earth is 4.4 light years away then how can any spaceship travel such long distance?
Good question! No one really knows the answer to that though. Maybe their spaceships are so advanced that they travel faster than the speed of light or maybe they do not use propulsion as a form of transportation. Or maybe their spaceships aren't so advanced and they can't reach us. Or they don't have any spaceships yet. Nothing has happened so far, so who knows? All we can do is either get there first or wait and see. Either way. Hope I helped!
Why do rockets travel faster than planes?
Because they supposed to pass the atmosphere rather than just flying over the entire world.
Can echoes travel faster than light?
No. Nothing can travel faster than light.
Why does sound travel faster in warm?
Because the molecules are less dense and they vibrate faster letting sound travel faster
