What materials are used to make space shuttles?
Space shuttles are primarily made of aluminum alloys, reinforced carbon-carbon (RCC) for the heat shield, and thermal protection tiles. The external fuel tank is made of aluminum and the solid rocket boosters use a combination of aluminum, steel, and composite materials. Various other materials such as titanium, ceramics, and specific polymers are also used in different components of the space shuttle.
How was the space shuttle different from other spacecraft before it?
Space craft prior to the space shuttles were one-time-use vehicles. The space shuttles were made to be multiple use vehicles.
Are space shuttles covered by insulating tiles?
Yes, the bottoms and nose areas of all of the shuttle-craft ARE covered with tiles, which sometimes come off while the shuttle is in flight! Please see the related link below for more information:
What are space shuttles made of?
Space shuttles are primarily made of aluminum and titanium alloys, as well as composite materials like carbon fiber. These materials are chosen for their lightweight properties while still providing strength and heat resistance necessary for space travel. The exterior tiles are made of a silica-based material to protect the shuttle during reentry into Earth's atmosphere.
What metal is used for space shuttles?
Space shuttles are primarily made of aluminum alloys, which are lightweight and have good strength-to-weight ratio. They also use titanium and stainless steel in certain components for their durability and resistance to high temperatures. Additionally, some parts may be coated with thermal protection systems like insulating tiles made of materials such as silica fibers or reinforced carbon-carbon.
What energy is made from space shuttles?
Space shuttles use energy, not make it
Why are space shuttles main of heat resistance?
It's Thermal Heat Protection Tiles.
What is the difference between space rockets and space shuttles?
space shuttles were made to be reusable, rockets were used only once

Why is the tiles on the bottom of the shuttles floor need to be black?
The tiles do not have to be black, they just make it to be black.
What are the names of space shuttles being built?
NASA space shuttles

What is the difference to space shuttles and rockets?
well you know its pretty simple space shuttles were made for going into outer space and for missions.Rockets were made for pickles,lolipops,gumdrops,french fries,and other foods such as takis, doritos,fritos,prretelz and etc.
What 3 space shuttles made it back safely?
Veurjr, Kadkj, and Ruril
