Is Skylab a space probe a space station or a space shuttle?
it was also in the earlyer (not shuttle) missions
What are the roles of the space shuttle and the space station in space programs?
they both can be used in space to do missions
Where does the space shuttle land when space?
Most space shuttle missions have been to the International Space Station. The correct term would be to dock at the station, not to land there (since it is not located on land, but is floating in space).
How many space shuttle flights comprise the shuttle-mirphase 1 part of the international space station program?
According to NASA there have been a total of 119 shuttle missions of which 110 occured.
What types of missions does the space shuttle go on?
the missions vary from taking satellites into space or parts for the ISS (international space station) or repair jobs on existing satellites
Did all space shuttles dock at the International Space Station?
No, the Space Shuttle Columbia was not able to dock with the ISS. This shuttle was used to do other NASA missions until its untimely crash.
What was the main mission of the space shuttle program?
The main mission of the space shuttle program was to provide transportation for both astronauts and supplies, to and from the international space station. There were several other missions as well.
What type of satellite provides power for shuttle missions?
Satellites don't provide power for space shuttles. The shuttle could receive power from the international space station, but besides that, the shuttle wouldn't take any power from any satellites.
Computers in space?
yes, on space shuttle, space station, Apollo, Saturn and Mercury missions, Soyuz and Mir, artificial satellites and orbitors. LOTS of computers up there.
How many missions have occurred on the space station?
They are currently on Expedition 22 I believe, but if you wanted to know how many shuttle or Soyuz flights there have been, you can look that up too.
Is a space station the same as a space shuttle?
No. A space station stays in space, a shuttle goes back and forth between the station and the Earth.
How do you get to a space station?
A shuttle is launched then docked to the station.
