What is the temperature where space shuttles fly?
It depends on the altitude and location of the shuttle and the weather at the time
Why did david hempleman-adams needed an oxygen mask to fly at high altitude?
If one flies at high altitude the air gets thinner, that is, there is less of it. If one wants to have enough oxygen, he will need a mask.
What does echolocation mean for kids?

At what altitude does a High-Altitude Burst detonate?

A pyramid has a rectangular base measuring 6'x4' If its altitude is 8' what is its volume
Height of an object above earths surface?
Altitude. Height. Depends on what you are measuring.
What is the root word for altimeter?
An altimeter is an altitude measuring device (alti + meter).
How does the altitude of Polaris change with latitude?
the altitude of polaris is same as the latitude of your location assuming that you are in the northern hemisphere
What is the location above or below sea level?

What is the difference between a radar altimeter and a barometric altimeter?
Radar altimeter gets altitude information by bouncing a radio wave off the surface of the Earth and determines the aircrafts altitude by measuring the length of time it takes for the signal to return. Barometric altimeters get altitude information by measuring the barometric air pressure outside the aircraft. Barometric pressure decreases as altitude increases. Radar altimeters will give altitude above ground level while barometric altimeters give altitude above sea level.
