What else can I help you with?
Compare to the distance to the moon how far away is the space shuttle when in space from the earth?
The moon is at an estimated distance of 320 000 km from the Earth. The shuttle is on average 350 km form the surface of the earth... that means that the moon is about 915 times further away from the Earth then the space shuttle!
How far is the shuttle from earth when in orbit?

Why does gravity not pull on a space shuddle?
The space shuttle is in a state of free fall around Earth, following an orbit, which counteracts the force of gravity pulling it down. This allows the space shuttle to remain in a stable path without being pulled down by gravity.
Has the moon ever been hit by a space shuttle?
No, the moon has never been hit by a space shuttle. Space shuttles were used for missions in low Earth orbit and never traveled far enough to reach the moon.
How fast does in Miles per hour does the space shuttle go?
If a space shuttle travels at 17,500 (mph) (highest recorded time so far) well; you work it out!

How far can a astronaut go into space in the space shuttle?
115 to 400 miles above the Earth.
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 far is Earth to Venus in a space shuttle?
Distances don't depend on the specific nature of the phantasy in which you imagine traversing them, and no Space Shuttle was ever capable of traveling to Venus.

What impact did the first space shuttle have on the world..... as in did it make society to day different?
The space shuttle helped us to be able to go into space and find out lots of info. we did not know. Before we had the space shuttle all we had were telescopes. Telescopes were good but all that they gave us were a picture and then we had to estimate how far away things in the universe were from other things were in the universe. Now that we have the space shuttle we are able to see things that we may not have seen with the telescope. We are also able to see how far away things are from other things
Is the weight of the space shuttle the same on earth as it is in space?
Its mass is the same(ignoring spent fuel) but the weight is a result of the gravitational pull, which is different in space. Actually the space shuttle never gets far enough from the earth for it's weight to change. The reason it seems weightless is because it is in free-fall.
Has the moon ever been hit by a space shuttle?
No, the moon has never been hit by a space shuttle. Space shuttles were used for missions in low Earth orbit and never traveled far enough to reach the moon.

How far way is the sugar discovered in space from earth?
trillions of miles away
From How far away can space shuttle launch been seen?
A space shuttle launch can typically be seen from about 30-50 miles away, depending on atmospheric conditions and visibility. However, large rockets or unique lighting effects might make them visible from even further distances.
