Why does the space shuttle carry oxygen?
The space shuttle carries oxygen for the astronauts to breathe. It is necessary for sustaining human life in the spacecraft since there is no atmosphere beyond Earth's atmosphere. Oxygen is also used for various life support systems and for maintaining a safe environment inside the shuttle.
Are there any computers inside a space shuttle?
Yes, space shuttles carry onboard computers to help control various systems like navigation, life support, and communication. These computers are essential for ensuring the shuttle operates safely and effectively in the harsh environment of space.
Why isn't a space shuttle is not a space probe?
A space shuttle isn't a probe, because humans are able to fly it. Not only that, but a space probe is most likely NOT to have life-support systems aboard.
First Asian American in space?
Ellison Onizuka was the first Asian American to "reach" space. He flew into space successfully with the Space Shuttle Discovery. He was killed during the mission as the Space Shuttle Challenger destructed.
Why was the space shuttle program so important to the success of the hubble space telescope?
Many reasons. For one, the telescope was started and designed specifically with the space shuttle in mind. It was launched on a space shuttle, and only the space shuttle's ability to carry astronauts and capture satellites with the robotic arm made the correctional repairs possible. Several servicing missions by space shuttles have upgraded and replaced vital parts to extend the telescope's life and keep it in orbit. After the Columbia disaster, the space shuttle and telescope's futures were both in question. If the space shuttle never existed, we wouldn't have the Hubble space telescope either.
What is the name of space shuttle in which KalpanaChawla lost her life?

How do space shuttles get payload off Earth?
Pay load is the total weight of the instruments, passengers, crew, and life-support systems that a space shuttle carries or can carry. The usual payload capacity for the space shuttle is 22,700 kilograms, but it can be raised depending on the choice of launch arrangement. Pay loads get off the earth by being launched in to orbit with either two different booster stages. The space shuttle gets the payload of the earth by using fuel tanks. The payload is attached to the space shuttle and is carried onto it when going into space.

Carries a crew of five to seven and is designed to go only into Earth's orbit?
Oh, dude, you're talking about a space shuttle! It's like this big ol' spaceship that takes a bunch of people into Earth's orbit. It's like a fancy space taxi for astronauts. So yeah, it's got room for a crew of five to seven, and it's all about that Earth orbit life.
When was the life-support and computers installed on the space shuttle?
The life support and computers were installed in a space shuttle in 1985, by the great science and technologist Richard Walley! i hope this helps (:(:
