Why does a spacecraft need a heat shield to return to earth?
The speed of reentry combined with air friction creates a massive amount of heat at the point of entry. Heat shielding allows the craft to survive the high temperatures intact, but even a small defect in shielding can be catastrophic.
What extraterrestial people invented the spacecraft?
You would need to prove that extraterrestrials exist before we can speculate on what type of spacecraft they have invented.
What equipment would you need to go to Jupiter?
you would need a space suit and supplies also a lot of space food and the most important a spacecraft.
Which type of spacecraft is best suited to explore planets that have very different conditions from those of earth and why?
you need to know to what kind of conditions there are on the planet you want to go to ,and then build your spacecraft according tho those conditions that would be the fasted and cheapest way. Why? because it is easier for your spacecraft to go through with the mission your on to whatever.
Why does a spacecraft need a rocket engine?
So it can take off, and frankly get in to space.
What if Americium was replaced with a gamma-emitter in smoke alarms?
It would need a lot more shielding to be as safe as the alpha radiation of Americium.

What do scientists who study how plants grow in space use?
you would need a spacecraft
Why are space rovers so small?
The larger and heavier something is, the harder it is to get into space. The more weight you put into a spacecraft, the more fuel you need. And on top of that, you need additional fuel to get that fuel into space, so the need for fuel increases exponentially with the weight of the spacecraft.

Why do scientists use spacecraft without people to explore space?
scientists use spacecraft without people to explore space because scientists need to know more about space and the solar system
What is the function of shielding in a nuclear reactor?
The first line of shielding is to limit the neutron bombardment of the pressure vessel, to give it a safe life of 40 or more years. Then you need to protect personnel who have to go into areas close to the reactor for maintenance, and also to limit the exposure of equipment which may need maintanance done during the life of the plant
How close can you get to planet Neptune?
neptune is the eighth planet from the sun . Comment: You can get as close as you like, but you would need a very good spacecraft and it would take years to get there.
What equipment do you need to go on a spacecraft to mars?
You will really just need a space helmet, space suit, oxgen breather thing and I think that's about all but there is probably more..
