How many G's does the space shuttle do at launch?
The space shuttle experienced about 3 G's (3 times the force of Earth's gravity) during launch. This force occurred as the shuttle accelerated into space to overcome Earth's gravity.
What force acts on a space shuttle when it accelerates?
Presumably the most important force on an accelerating space shuttle is the force of the rocket engines (thrusters). Certainly other forces are present, including gravity and air friction.
The amount of gravitational force that acts on the space shuttle while in orbit is?
The amount of gravitational force acting on the space shuttle in orbit is still significant, approximately 90% of the force experienced on the surface of the Earth. This force is what keeps the shuttle and astronauts in orbit around the Earth, counteracting the centripetal force that tries to pull them away.
What is the function of the space shuttle?
The primary function of a space shuttle is to take notes on what happens in space. Countries from around the world use space shuttles to study details of other planet, moons, stars, and other objects in space.
Is the robotic arm on the space shuttle a robot?
Yes, the robotic arm on the space shuttle is considered a robot because it is a mechanical device that can be programmed to manipulate objects in its environment autonomously.
Why do objects in orbiting space shuttle float?
No Gravity.

What spacecraft going to be used after the space shuttle?
UFO's: as of yet unidentified flying objects.
Where in California did the space shuttle Endeavour land?
Edwards Air Force Base
Did a space shuttle land in dyess air force base?
Columbia, 1982
Why boosters are used in space shuttle?
Well they are used because without them the space shuttle would not be able to have enough force to escape the earths gravity when it was being launched.
Is there centrifugal force present in space?
Yes, centrifugal force can be present in space when objects are rotating or moving in a curved path. This force acts outward from the center of rotation and can affect the motion of objects in space.
Have space shuttles always been launched from Florida?
The US Space shuttle have only launched from Florida. Russia had a space shuttle that was launched from there.
