Why do space shuttles heat up when they re-enter into the earths atmosphere?
When the shuttle goes from the vacuum of space and enters the earths atmosphere, it heats up because of simple friction. The friction is from the shuttle going so fast and hitting the atmosphere. Same reason you sometimes see meteor showers.
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.
How fast does a space shuttle reenter the earths atmosphere?
A space shuttle reenters the Earth's atmosphere at a speed of around 17,500 miles per hour. The high speed generates intense heat, which is why the shuttle needs heat shields to protect it during reentry. The spacecraft gradually slows down as it descends through the atmosphere.
Can the shuttle escape the earths atmosphere?
No it can't.

Why does spaceships catch on fire while coming back to earth?
It has a high speed as it begins re-entry, but the earths atmosphere slows it down as it approches the surface. The heat comes about due to the friction of the atmosphere on the shuttle as it slows.

How powerful are the engines in a space shuttle?
they are more powerful than the ones in a plane and a jet pack as they need to lift a 2 tonne space shuttle off and out of earths atmosphere
How do you get food on a space station?
The space station is not too far out of the Earths atmosphere so they just send up a space shuttle!
What does it take for aluminum to break down?
it takes the heat of a meteorite coming through the earths atmosphere
