If you were in an airplane with a maximum speed of 600 miles per hour and you were traveling in the direction opposite the earth's rotation could you travel fast enough to never see the sun set?

If you were going fast enough. But if you want too fast I imagine you would see western sunrise again. However at that speed you would run out of fuel quite fast. It would depend upon your latitude and the time of year. For example if you were above the Arctic circle in the summer, any speed would keep you in the light, but in the winter you would always be in the darkness. The farther away you are from the equator the slower you could travel. (Assuming you are traveling parallel to the equator.) The necessary speed at the equator is approximately 1038 MPH.

What is the maximum speed of a space shuttle?

The maximum speed of a space shuttle during launch is approximately 17,500 miles per hour, achieved during the ascent to low Earth orbit. Once in orbit, the shuttle travels at an average speed of around 17,500 to 18,000 miles per hour in order to remain in orbit around the Earth.


What happens if the space shuttle launches in a greatest speed?

The space shuttles have been retired and are no longer launched.There is one point in the launch trajectory called "throttle back" where the shuttle is under maximum stress. If they did not throttle back the engines at this point and continued accelerating, the maximum design stress limits would soon be exceeded resulting in structural failure and loss of the vehicle. However less than a minute after "throttle back" the stresses drop due to lower atmospheric density and they "throttle up" again to maximum engine thrust on all engines (104% of original engine design thrust).


What is the max speed of a manned spacecraft?

The maximum speed reached by a manned spacecraft was during the Apollo 10 mission in 1969, when the spacecraft reached a speed of about 24,791 mph (39,897 km/h) relative to Earth. This speed was necessary to escape Earth's gravity and travel to the Moon.
