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
How do space shuttles move in space if there is nothing to push against?
The action of burning fuel creates thrust. Newton's Law: "To every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction". The "push" is on the shuttle itself, not on the surrounding space. Forward motion depends on the speed and mass of the exhaust.
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.
What will happen to the space shuttle that just retired?
Discovery is going into a museum.
