There are actually two types of boosters that were both used by the space shuttle before their decommission. To propel the vehicle out into space from the surface of the earth out past the atmosphere, the shuttle used SRB's, or Solid Rocket Boosters. The engines on the actual shuttle are LRB's, or Liquid Rocket Boosters. These are used to propel the space vehicle further into space and into orbit around the earth.

What is the most difficult invention made by man?
spaceship
Could you hear a spaceship explode in outer space?
The answere is no.
How do you use heat engine in a sentence?
Friction caused by the movement of cams, cranks and pistons create heat in an engine. The heat from the engine is used to warm radiator water which then is used in the car's heater.
Is the furnace an internal or external combustion engine?
An ordinary furnace is not an engine at all, because it does not directly cause mechanical motion. The heat or expanding gases released in a furnace can be used to drive an engine, but that is a separate component from the furnace. If a furnace is used in this manner, the engine is an external combustion engine.
What were steam engine powers used for?
steam engine powers are used for the transport application in the early days. Later modified versions of the steam engines are used also for the electrical energy generation.
How does a spaceship turn in space?
A spaceship can turn in space by firing thrusters or adjusting the direction of its engine exhaust. By changing the direction of the thrust force, the spaceship can rotate and change its orientation. Additionally, gyroscopes can be used to help control and stabilize the spacecraft during the turning process.

What do you do when you get to the spaceship with the hovercraft close to the wind mill?
After you get the over craft from the mill in poptropica, you go all the way right, on the hover craft, over the mud, to a crashed spaceship. You have to have the fuel from the alien in the dungeon in the library to start the engine to the spaceship.

How to launch a spaceship in civilization IV?
To launch a spaceship in Civilization IV, you need to achieve a Space Victory by building and launching all spaceship parts at your Spaceship Factory. You must first research the required technologies, then construct the necessary components in your cities, such as the SS Cockpit, SS Stasis Chamber, SS Engine, and SS Life Support. Once all components are built, the spaceship will automatically launch and achieve victory.
How do spaceship engines work?
This is a very general question.There are a wide variety of spaceship engines which utilise a wide range of differing mechanisms in which to propel a spacecraft.In general spaceships engines 'work' by using Newtons Third Law which states:For every action, there is an equal and opposite re-action.This means that if a spaceship engine produces an exhaust that leaves the spaceship, then the spaceship's engine and hence the spaceship will be pushed in the opposite direction.The American Space Shuttle's main engines and its RCS (reaction control system) operate in this manner.There are some variation in spaceship engine designs, for example Project Orion was a nuclear engine design which would fire nuclear bombs out of the rear of the spaceship (0.15 KT bombs for the 4000 ton spaceship design).Whilst the firing of the nuclear bomb out of the back of the spaceship would provide a tiny bit of thrust, the majority of this engines thrust was provided when the bomb exploded 200 feet from the spaceship.The blast wave from the explosion would hit the rear of the spaceship on a specially designed 'pusher plate' and the force of the plasma wave hitting this pusher plate moved the spaceship forward.Project Orion never proceeded beyond a few small chemical explosive based prototypes due to concerns over the use of nuclear weapons inside the Earths atmosphere but I have included as an example of how varied some spaceship engines can be.
Why was The spaceship cannot landed at the land?
The spaceship was unable to land on the land due to technical difficulties, such as malfunctioning landing gear or engine failure. The crew would have to troubleshoot the issue or find an alternative landing site.
