What else can I help you with?
In which layer you find satellites and space shuttles?
Satellites and space shuttles are found in the exosphere layer of the Earth's atmosphere. The exosphere extends from an altitude of about 600 km (373 miles) upwards, and is where most man-made satellites orbit the Earth. Space shuttles operate both within and beyond the exosphere during their missions.
Is a space shuttle flown in the exosphere?
Since the exosphere has no specific end, and it is almost into orbit, then yes. When a space shuttle reaches orbital velocity, it is going to fly past the exosphere. A space shuttle has never attained escape velocity that I know of. It is certainly capable, though. Also, a space shuttle can be flown in the exosphere without ever reaching orbit in some conditions. (i.e. if they launch at JFK in Florida and land at Edwards Air Base in California, because the earth moves counterclockwise. They could only be up there for a very short time, however.)
What space shuttles did Sally Ride go on?
the challenger
In what layer do space shuttles fly?
Space shuttles fly in the thermosphere layer of the Earth's atmosphere, which is located between 80-550 kilometers above the Earth's surface. This layer is characterized by a very low density of gas molecules and high temperatures due to intense solar radiation.
In which layer of the atmosphere does the space shuttle travel?
The space shuttle travels in the thermosphere, which is the layer of the atmosphere located between the mesosphere and the exosphere. This is where most space shuttles orbit Earth at altitudes ranging from around 80 to 600 kilometers.
Which layer are the space station and shuttles in?
exosphere

Which atmospheric layer is where space shuttles orbit?
The atmosphere is divided in to five layers. These are Troposhere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere and Exosphere. The space shuttles orbit in thermosphere.The atmosphere is divided in to five layers. These are Troposhere, Stratospere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere and Exosphere. The space shuttles orbit in thermosphere.
What are two things you might find in the exosphere?
In the exosphere, you may find low-density gas molecules like hydrogen and helium, as well as some space debris such as dust particles or meteoroids. The exosphere is the outermost layer of Earth's atmosphere, extending beyond the thermosphere.

What altitude is the exosphere?
Well, that's hard to say. You can take an estimate by knowing that it is the uppermost atmospheric layer, and that beyond it, is outer space. The exosphere is right above the thermosphere (and ionosphere), and the thermosphere can range up to 85-500 km. above Earth. So yeah, the exosphere is pretty high up. P.S. The exosphere is where space shuttles travel.

What are the names of space shuttles being built?
NASA space shuttles
What energy is made from space shuttles?
Space shuttles use energy, not make it
What will happen to Discovery the last of the space shuttles?
It will go on display at the Smithsonian Institution's Air and Space Museum.
