What have we done in the direction of space explorations?
Making spacecraft,space shuttle and artificial satellites
How space shuttles change the world?
They changed the world by being the first reusable spacecraft.
What is a deorbit burn that is done by space shuttles on reentry?
The firing of a spacecraft's engine against the direction of motion to cut the spacecraft's orbital speed. The speed reduction places the spacecraft in a lower orbit. If this lower orbit passes through Earth's atmosphere, the spacecraft reenters.
What is a launch of a spacecraft?
The process by which a spacecraft is propelled into space.
Is a space probe a manned or unmanned spacecraft?
Unmanned - Space probes are a form of robotic spacecraft.

How do rockets without fire fly while they are in space?
An object in motion will continue to move at the same speed and in the same direction unless some force acts on it. So there is no need to continuously fire rockets in space. That is only needed if the spacecraft needs to change speed or direction. When spacecraft is on orbit, gravity constantly pulls it toward the object it is orbiting, but it is moving fast enough that, in simple terms, it will constantly miss.

What spacecraft that carry instrument that travel into outer space?
a space craft
How do spacecraft move when they fire their rockets as the rockets have nothing to push against in space?
The law of conservation of momentum comes into play here. I.e A change in the momentum of the space craft ( could be direction or velocity) must cause a equal and opposite momentum change somehow. In space the rocket will carry the mass to push in the opposite direction to the required shift for the momentum change . In most space craft, fuel is burnt and products are allowed to flow backwards pushing the rocket forwards ( or changing direction). It is similar to an inflated balloon being released, the air ir pushed out in one direction and the balloon moves in the other.

How is the Conservation of momentum used to move a spacecraft?
If the burning gases go out in one direction, the spacecraft accelerates in the other direction.
What is the difference in the space shuttle and other spacecraft?
how is the space shuttle different form other spacecraft
Is a space probe a manned or unmanned spacecraft?
Unmanned - Space probes are a form of robotic spacecraft.
How does a spacecraft get into space?
It is propelled into space by rockets
What spacecraft provides living quarters and working space?
All U.S. spacecraft since Apollo have provided living space and working space.
