Who went and done the first launch of the space shuttle in 1980?
The first Space Shuttle launch was on April 12th, 1981. NASA (USA) launched Space Shuttle Columbia on STS-1.
What have we done in the direction of space explorations?
Making spacecraft,space shuttle and artificial satellites
What was the cause of the Columbia space shuttle disaster?
The Columbia space shuttle disaster was caused by damage done to left wing of the Columbia. It occurred only 81.9 seconds after the departing. The culprit was a separation of insulation foam.
How does a space shuttle manuever in the exosphere?
The space shuttle doesn't do much maneuvering in the outer layers of the Earth's atmosphere. Most of its maneuvering is done once it's passed through these layers due to the extreme temperatures experienced during this time.
How do space shuttles enter and exit space?
When a space shuttle takes off, it gathers momentum and burns fuel to get higher. Once the huge rocket that the space shuttle rides on is out of fuel, it falls off. The shuttle continues on alone into space. To get back into the atmosphere, careful calculations are done. The shuttle must come in at just the right angle or else it will burn up or bounce off of the atmosphere and be gone forever. The space shuttle slices into the atmosphere and begins gliding like a paper airplane at incredible speeds. A computer controls the shuttle and lands it on a runway that is a mile wide and several miles long. It lands like a normal airplane and everyone arrives safely.

What will happen to nasa once the space shuttle program is done?
it will continue as usual.nasa is not all about sending people to space, it has many important missions aside from the shuttle programe
Is any research being done in space?
Yes, there is. In fact, about a year ago, Wallops launched a space shuttle into outer space.
How does the space shuttle carry enough fuel for a mission?
The space shuttle uses liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen as fuel. Generally a sufficient quantity of fuel is carried but if need be re-fuelling can be done in space.
How do get space in emerald version?
you cant. you might have heard that when you get 100 launches you go to space. but i have 97 launches so i will wait to tell you when i get 100 launches but listen if people did go into space in emerald don't you think someone would have put it on youtube or something. I've looked everywhere on the web and most people say they have reached 100 launches or its fake and even admit that they have hacked it. again ill let you know if i reach 100 launches and go to space the only other way is with gameshark probably sold at gamestop or best buy idk or find out how to hack also if you heard of Pokemon events they are done.

What do you do after sending a space shuttle up?
After a space shuttle is launched it goes in orbit around the Earth. While in orbit, the astronauts preform experiments that can only be done in micro gravity or preform maintenance on satellites, or launch new satellites.

Why are shuttles called shuttles?
The space shuttle is a reusable space vehicle; it goes into space and it comes back, and can be used again for futher missions into space. Whereas, previously space travel was done by rockets that could be used only once. The rockets would be used up after a single use. Shuttles, therefore, are the kind that can shuttle back and forth.
What couldve been done for the space shuttle not to explode?
I'm assuming you're talking about Challenger in 1986. Space Shuttle Challenger did not explode. It's right SRB exploded because it's O-ring failed because of the 27 F degree weather on the launch pad. So what could've been done to prevent it? Not launch it.
