Which layer of the atmosphere does the space shuttle travel in?
The space shuttle travels in the thermosphere layer of the atmosphere, which is the layer located above the mesosphere. This layer is where temperatures can reach very high levels due to its proximity to space.
How do astronauts travel in space and escape earths atmosphere?
Astronauts travel in space and escape earth's atmosphere by wearing gravity resistant suits and traveling to outer space in a space shuttle that is insulated against the elements.
Why does a space shuttle need to travel so fast when entering earths atmosphere?
Although it reaches incredible speeds, a Space Shuttle is not going fast when it enters the atmosphere. The gravitational pull of Earth, or just gravity, are pulling down on the space shuttle with immense force.
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.
What space shuttle disintegrated upon re-entering the earths atmosphere?
Space Shuttle Columbia
What was the need for a space shuttle?
To break the atmosphere and go into space easily.
Which layer of the atmosphere does the space shuttle travel in?
The space shuttle travels in the thermosphere layer of the atmosphere, which is the layer located above the mesosphere. This layer is where temperatures can reach very high levels due to its proximity to space.
How high in the earths atmosphere does a space shuttle travel?
230 miles out into space

Does the Earth's rotation affect a space shuttle launch?
Yes. It is harder for a Space Shuttle to break through the Earth's atmosphere when it's going against the rotation of Earth.
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.
What medium does the sound wave travel through to get from the shuttle?
We will assume you are asking about the Space Shuttle, a reusable spacecraft flown by NASA. While the shuttle is lifting off and in the atmosphere any sound generated by the shuttle will travel through the air. When the shuttle is in orbit there is no (or very very little) air and any sound that would have been generated by the shuttle will not be transmitted. There is a pressurized atmosphere within the shuttle that allows the voices of the astronauts to travel within the shuttle just as it does on the surface of the Earth.
What space shuttle disintegrated upon re-entering the earths atmosphere?
Space Shuttle Columbia
What is the top speed of space shuttle?
The Space Shuttle can travel over 17,500 MPH
Where would you find a space shuttle in the atmosphere?
I am pretty sure that a space shuttle is found in the thermosphere or mesosphere.
What speed does a space shuttle reach before leaving the earth's atmosphere?
The space shuttle reaches 17,850 mph before leaving earth's atmosphere.
