What would happen to a space shuttle if it lost its forward motion?
lose orbit.
Describe the upward motion of the space shuttle one second after launch?
Accelerating.
What happens once the space shuttle goes to space?
When a shuttle reaches outer space it can turn off its thrusters because the law of inertia states that an object in motion can stay at motion until a force acts upon it. And it can just fly without wasting gas/fuel.
When in orbit a satellite such as the space shuttle is either a projectile or a non-accelerated motion or free from earths gravity or an ellipse?
free from the motion of earth
What is the name of the american space shuttle that goes into orbit?
There were 5. Space Shuttle Columbia (destroyed in 2003), Space Shuttle Challenger (destroyed in 1886), Space Shuttle Discovery, Space Shuttle Atlantis, and Space Shuttle Endeavour.

What are the forces like when a space shuttle leaves the earth?
Forces of Motion. As far as I have known, it is when the space shuttle leaves the earth, it is pushed upwards by the opposite side of the shuttle whenerer it is going to leave. Answered by: SAV

What is the scientific principle that allows the space shuttle to achieve lift off?
Newton's third law of motion
When was the first space shuttle invented?
The first space shuttle invented was the space shuttle enterprise.
What was the last space shuttle ever built?
Space Shuttle Endeavour was the final Space Shuttle built. It was built to replace Space Shuttle Challenger.
How does a space shuttle demonstrate the first law of motion?
Newton's first law of motion (the law of inertia) states that an object in motion will remain in motion until a force equal or greater is acted upon it and an object at rest will remain at rest until a force is acted upon it. The shuttle places itself in orbit after liftoff from several powerful engines. The shuttle is at rest until these engines act on the shuttle to break it of the earths magnetic pull
Why the space shuttle had to do with space?
The space shuttle went into space and studied outer space.
What was the 1st name of the space shuttle?
Of the first Space Shuttle; Enterprise. Of the first space worthy Space Shuttle; Columbia.
