Where have space shuttles been?
only to low Earth orbit.
Is the International Space Station still up in orbit?
Yes, it's in a low orbit around the Earth.
How far up in space is international space station?
it has a low orbit of 340 KM in the sky
If a space vehicle is designed to orbit the earth very slowly should it be into a low or high orbit?
High orbit, Gravity weakens as you move away from its source, and although less centripetal force is needed to maintain larger circlular paths at a given speed gravity weakens at a greater rate.
The space shuttle travels in the?
The space shuttle travels in low earth orbit (LEO), from 120 to 380 miles in space.
Does the space shuttle orbit the earth in what's called high orbit?
No. It is in low earth orbit.
If a space vehicle is designed to orbit around the earth very slowly should it be put into a low or high orbit?
A high orbit. The effect of gravity gets less as you get further away from the Earth and so you'd need less speed to keep up.
Where have space shuttles been?
only to low Earth orbit.
Is the International Space Station still up in orbit?
Yes, it's in a low orbit around the Earth.
Can the space shuttle travel to the moon?
No. The space shuttle can only reach low Earth orbit.
How far up in space is international space station?
it has a low orbit of 340 KM in the sky
How many people went into space?
Hundreds (if you count low orbit as space) a dozen if you coutn the Moon as space).
What is the circular path the shuttle makes in space?
low-orbit (satellite)
Where was the first American space station?
It was locateed in low-earth-orbit.
What is the definition of low earth orbit?
An earth orbit that is lower to earth then both a medium and high earth orbit.
If a space vehicle is designed to orbit the earth very slowly should it be into a low or high orbit?
High orbit, Gravity weakens as you move away from its source, and although less centripetal force is needed to maintain larger circlular paths at a given speed gravity weakens at a greater rate.
