It would probably loose control or wouldn't be able to collect data.


What is the source of the centripetal force that keeps the International Space Station in orbit around the earth?

The centripetal force that keeps the International Space Station in orbit around the Earth is due to the gravitational pull between the Earth and the space station. This gravitational force causes the space station to constantly fall towards Earth, but its tangential velocity keeps it moving sideways, resulting in a stable orbit.


When did Project Space Station happen?

How fast does the space station fly?

The space station does NOT fly. IT is in space and there is no are for it to fly in. The space station is in Earth Orbit moving at 7.66 kilometres per second.


What would happen to the International Space Station of it were moving sideways faster than orbital speed?

If the International Space Station (ISS) were to move sideways faster than its orbital speed, it would no longer maintain a stable orbit around Earth. Instead, it would begin to experience a loss of altitude as gravitational forces would pull it downward, leading to a rapid descent. Ultimately, this could result in a catastrophic re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere, causing the ISS to disintegrate due to the intense heat and pressure.


When did Space Station Silicon Valley happen?

Space Station Silicon Valley happened in 1998.


Which force keeps the space station in orbit?

The force of gravity keeps the space station in orbit as well as inertia that keeps the space station moving in a straight line.


Is the space station moving or stationary?

Its moving. Quickly. It is in orbit around the earth, the same as any satellite.


What would happen if the internation space station fell to earth?

It would really suck... for the people on the space station and the people on earth


How has a space station impact society?
