Why doesn't NASA use the Saturn 5 anymore?

NASA retired the Saturn V rocket in 1973 after the Apollo program ended. The high cost of operating and maintaining the Saturn V, along with advances in rocket technology, led NASA to shift to newer and more efficient rocket systems for its missions. Today, NASA uses the Space Launch System (SLS) for its deep space exploration missions.


Will nasa use an Apollo rocket if they return to the moon?

The blueprints of the Saturn V rocket where lost in part, and the contractors closed, changed business, or aren't available to redo the same parts. The "Apollo" spacecraft will be replaced by the "Orion" spacecraft, and it wil use Ares as the rocket, instead of the Saturn from the 1960's.


Was the NASA tempur material originally used for a NASA mission?

Yes, the NASA temperature-sensitive material, also known as memory foam, was originally developed by NASA in the 1970s to improve seat cushioning and crash protection for astronauts during space missions.


How does NASA make ear thermometers?

NASA does not produce ear thermometers. Ear thermometers are typically made by medical device manufacturers using infrared technology to measure the temperature inside the ear canal. NASA's focus is on space exploration and scientific research, so they do not manufacture medical devices for commercial use.


How Much Money Does NASA waste?

It is subjective to label NASA's spending as "waste." NASA's budget is allocated to various programs and missions that help advance scientific research, technology development, and exploration of space. While NASA faces budget overruns and delays like many large organizations, the agency strives to make efficient use of its funding to achieve its goals.

How did the telescope contribute to modern technology?

The telescope is not very modern it has been around for hundreds of years and is used to observe the stars. In modern technology Nasa and universities use them to explore space looking for planets. They are very useful.
