What are rocket boosters?
The engines for the space shuttle.
How and why will the mass of the whole space vehicle change when the boosters are separated?
When the boosters are separated from the space vehicle, the mass of the vehicle will decrease because it is losing the mass of the boosters. This reduction in mass allows the remaining vehicle to accelerate more efficiently and achieve its intended trajectory in space.
How do shuttles and stations get into space?
Stations are built in space; Shuttles use rocket boosters.
How many external boosters propel the space shuttle into orbit?
two
What is a engine used on a spaceship?
There are actually two types of boosters that were both used by the space shuttle before their decommission. To propel the vehicle out into space from the surface of the earth out past the atmosphere, the shuttle used SRB's, or Solid Rocket Boosters. The engines on the actual shuttle are LRB's, or Liquid Rocket Boosters. These are used to propel the space vehicle further into space and into orbit around the earth.
How does space shuttle get into space?
By the use of it's three Main Engines and two Solid Rocket Boosters.
How the space shuttle moves up as its boosters are ignited?
This is simple, after the first stage boosters are ignited, and separation occurs, the pilots will let the shuttle drift, then once right-side up, they will ignite the boosters in the back, obviously making them go faster and go where ever they need to. After there mission in space is done, they will face Earth, ignite the boosters, and land on a 100+ mile stretch!
How many solid rocket boosters does the space shuttle use?
The Space Shuttle used two solid rocket boosters during liftoff. These solid rocket boosters provided the additional thrust needed to propel the shuttle into orbit before separating and falling back to Earth.
How did people get the space shuttle in space?
The space shuttle was launched into space using a combination of solid rocket boosters and liquid fuel engines. The boosters provided the initial thrust needed to get the shuttle off the ground, while the main engines continued to propel it into orbit. Once in space, the shuttle would orbit the Earth until it was ready to re-enter the atmosphere and land back on Earth.
How does the space shuttle get to space?
There are 2 solid rocket boosters (white things) and one fuel tank (red thing) the solid rocket boosters do all the work and use up the fuel in the fuel tank and then both the solid rocket boosters and the fuel tank fall off and are collect on earth and reused (there is a secondary fuel tank built in to the actual to take were it need to go once its in space)
Where is the Jacksonville Boosters Foundation Inc in Jacksonville Oregon located?
The address of the Jacksonville Boosters Foundation Inc is: Po Box 1061, Jacksonville, OR 97530-1061
How does the space shuttle fly into space?
The Space Shuttle flies into space using a combination of its powerful solid rocket boosters and its main engines. Upon liftoff, the solid rocket boosters provide the majority of the thrust needed to overcome Earth's gravity. Once the shuttle reaches a certain altitude and velocity, the boosters are jettisoned, and the main engines continue to propel the shuttle into orbit. After reaching space, the shuttle's orbital maneuvering system helps it adjust its trajectory for docking or other mission objectives.
