What fuel did the Apollo 15 use?
The fuel used by the Apollo 15 spacecraft as well as all the Apollo spacecrafts , was a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen gases.
Why are spacecrafts small and lightweight?
The heavier it is the stronger the engine has to be. And the stronger the engine the more fuel will it burn. And the more fuel it burns the more fuel has to be carried in the rocket. And the more fuel the rocket has to lift the stronger the engine has to be. While some Spacecrafts are not light weight such as the Apollo 11 But is the Largest And Fastest That Got to the moon
What are three main types of rockets that power modern spacecrafts?
The three kinds of rockets are solid fuel rockets, liquid fuel rockets, and ion powered rockets.
Why do spacecrafts lose their large fuel tanks and booster rockets once they have left the earth's surface?
because rocket need les weight
Did Apollo 11 have solar cells?
None of the Apollo spacecrafts has solar cells. All of them used fuel cells and chemical batteries to provide energy.
Why is fuel so useful in spacecrafts?
Fuel is so useful to spacecrafts because without the fuel the spacecraft would not go.
What fuel did the Apollo 15 use?
The fuel used by the Apollo 15 spacecraft as well as all the Apollo spacecrafts , was a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen gases.
Why is fuel cells useful in spacecrafts?
so they can go out on mars and other planets

Why are fuel cells used in spacecrafts?
They supply power to the spacecraft during missions.
When did they discover spacecrafts on Venus?
Although several spacecrafts have been sent to Venus, no alien spacecrafts have been discovered on its surface.
Why do engineers need to keep the masses of spacecrafts as low as possible?
The heavier it is the stronger the engine has to be. And the stronger the engine the more fuel will it burn. And the more fuel it burns the more fuel has to be carried in the rocket. And the more fuel the rocket has to lift the stronger the engine has to be.

because rocket need les weight
What do humans use plutonium for?
Applications of plutonium:explosive in nuclear weaponsnuclear fuel in nuclear power reactorsthe isotope 238Pu is used as energy source in spacecrafts or other applications (radioisotope thermoelectric generators)neutron generator, as Pu-Be source
