How does liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen enter the main engines of the space shuttle?
It is supplied by tanks, which are filled with liquid hydrogen and oxygen before the shuttle is launched.
How many trips did the Space Shuttle Columbia make?
The space shuttle Columbia completed 27 successful space flights, not including its final flight whereupon it was destroyed in the Earth's atmosphere. It was the only shuttle apart from the Challenger never to dock with the Mir Space Station or the International Space Station.
What kind of engine does the space shuttle have?
The Space Shuttle Main Engines (SSMEs) also known as the RS-24 engines are liquid fueled reusable engines made by Rocketdyne and burn liquid hydrogen as their fuel and liquid oxygen as the oxidiser. The shuttle has three engines. The fuel is stored in the large orange External Tank strapped to the shuttle's belly. On the way to orbit, the shuttle also uses two reusable solid rocket boosters (SRBs) which provide about 83% of the takeoff thrust. These use a solid fuel containing aluminum (the fuel), ammonium perchlorate (the oxidiser), iron oxide (a catalyst), and the mixture is held together with an epoxy and a binder (which also acts as fuel). While in space, the shuttle uses the reaction control system (RCS) thrusters which are seen on various places on the shuttle orbiter, and two orbital manoeuvering system (OMS) engines. The RCS and OMS use monomethyl hydrazine as the fuel and nitrogen tetroxide as the oxidiser.
The flying shuttle and spinning jenny were technological advances in?
The Textile Industry
What is a shuttles main engine powered by?
The Space Shuttle main engines are powered by a combination of Liquid Oxygen (LOX) as an oxidizer and Liquid Hydrogen (LH2) as a fuel. Both propellants are stored in the space shuttle's External Tank during launch. They are fed into the space shuttle's main engines by umbilical lines on the external tank, and then the orbiter's main propulsion system feed lines. The Space Shuttle's main engines can achieve a thrust level of about 512,300 pounds, which is greater than 12,000,000 horsepower.

What impact on society did the flying shuttle have?
The Flying Shuttle was made by an English inventor named John Kay in 1733. It was used for making weaving much faster. Allowing people to make larger looms operated by one person, Using levers and springs to pull the shuttle back. The Flying Shuttle became a very important invention in the textile industry, eventually put one or two shuttle throwers out of a job. The Flying Shuttle did use a lot of yarn and did make the supply of yarn even worse. The invention could produce a large piece of cloth; the invention was thrown by a leaver that could be operated by one weaver. Kay placed shuttle boxes at each side of the loom connected by a long board, known as a shuttle race. A single weaver, using one hand, could cause the shuttle to be moved back and forth across the loom from one shuttle box to the other. Some woollen manufacturers used the Flying Shuttle but did not pay him royalties. Many people from the textile industry were of course very offended and attacked John Kay home and destroyed his invention, because they thought "The Flying Shuttle" was such a successful invention it would have taken work away from them. Many people have tried creating well duplicating his invention but have not really succeeded. Inventions of the revolution in textiles were weaving and spinning while the Flying Shuttle had the scene of mechanical weaving; the spinning frame was also important making the textile industry. John Kay's invention had lead the industrial revolution. Without his Flying Shuttle, there would have been no need for the spinning machines that followed, Like the Spinning Jenny for instance.
