What is one spacecraft that has orbited earth?
All of the Space Shuttles have done it, as has the International Space Station, and many other spacecraft.
Is the International Space Station done?
the ISS is currently functioning normally, but scientists are planning to add more to it. It is scheduled to be fully completed in 2011- very soon!
Does the international space station have kinetic energy?
Yes to both, relative to Earth, because work was done to lift it in Earth's gravitational field and to impart speed to it.
International space station orbits the air in an approximately circular orbit at a high 375 km above the earth surface in one complete orbit is the work done by the earth on the space station positive?

Why is it less expensive to launch an interplanetary spacecraft from the International Space Station in earths orbit than from earth itself?
We've never made an interplanetary spacecraft, but those who argue that it would be best to start from high orbit (like at the international space station) argue that the amount of rocket fuel needed to leave the surface would be far greater if done all at once instead of in pieces. Rocket fuel is expensive.

What or who did they send to the space station?
A lot of astronauts have served on the International Space Station. Supplies of food and other necessities are brought for the astronauts. As the space station is still undergoing construction, additional parts and modules are brought up to it. A lot of experiments are done on it, so equipment and necessary materials to conduct those experiments are brought to the space station.

What is an area of space research conducted in space and one conducted from earth?
The research done on the ISS (International Space Station) is conducted in space. It includes growing crystals for technological purposes. Studies performed on the Arecibo radio telescope regarding space are performed on Earth.

What are some experiments that are done on the space station?
Many different experiments are done on the space station. There have been experiments done on Salmonella; Tethered Satellite System; seeing if a rose smelled different in space; building protein crystals; building films or materials in space; and studying nematodes in space.
What direction will space exploration take when the current space shuttle fleet is retired?
The space shuttle is scheduled to be retired in 2010. Immediately after the transportation of Americans to the International Space Station will be done through the Russian Soyuz TMA spacecraft. In or around 2014-2015, NASA will commission its Orion spacecraft. The Orion will start off bringing astronauts to the Space Station and will move on to its main goal, bringing people to the Moon for long duration stays.
What type of work is done by an astronaut?
To get information from planets or fix something on or in the Space Station

In one complete orbit is the work done by the earth on the space station positive negative or zero?
zero
Which specific countries built the International Space Station?
NASAAnswer:As the name suggests the International Space Station (ISS) was worked on by several nations. It features parts of several space station projects. Overall it was better return on investment to have many partners involved in the project.The projects include:the American Freedomthe Soviet/Russian Mir-2the European Columbusthe Japanese KibōThe initial installation (first completed portion) was the Russian Zarya which was launched in 1998 by Russia.There are now 14 modules including contributions by Canada.Supplying the station has been done by Russian and American quipment. With the end of the American shuttle program Russia will pick up the full weight of this task.
