17,580 mph or 7,860 s/m (in orbit)
It takes about 8.5 minutes for a space shuttle to reach space after launch. The space shuttle accelerates to a speed of about 17,500 miles per hour to overcome Earth's gravity and enter space.
The shuttle uses the atmosphere to slow itself down from orbital speed.
The space shuttle Columbia had a maximum speed of approximately 17,500 miles per hour during its orbit in space.
During liftoff, a space shuttle travels at a speed of about 17,500 mph (28,000 km/h). This speed allows it to overcome Earth's gravity and reach orbit around the planet. The intense acceleration and velocity are necessary for a successful journey to space.
It can go a little faster than 18,000 miles per hour. So slow compared to what the universe can throw at it.
It can go at bannanas
17,000 mph
The Space Shuttle can travel over 17,500 MPH
It takes about 8.5 minutes for a space shuttle to reach space after launch. The space shuttle accelerates to a speed of about 17,500 miles per hour to overcome Earth's gravity and enter space.
At least 17,500 MPH which is the speed required to stay in orbit.
The purpose of the Columbia space shuttle was to go into space
The shuttle uses the atmosphere to slow itself down from orbital speed.
No 1). Nothing can. 2). No space shuttle ever came anywhere close to that speed. 3). No space shuttle can travel at any speed now, because that program has ended, and the remaining shuttles are in museums.
latest space satellite from India
All space shuttle vehicles orbit at a speed of 17,320 miles per hour.
Depends on your speed. The space shuttle can be in space in about 8 minutes.
the shuttle went into space because it launched the Hubble space telescope.
