The amount of fuel required to take astronauts to Mars depends on the number of astronauts, the amount of equipment they take with them, and whether the designers want the trip to take a short time (requires more fuel) or a long time (requires less fuel but more supplies). It also depends on the propulsion system to be used. The actual amount of fuel needed has to be determined during the design process and cannot be estimated in advance.

How much fuel will be needed in a rocket?

How much fuel will be needed in a rocket will depend on the size of the rocket and where it is going. A rocket that will be traveling into space burns a lot of fuel and will need enough to keep it in orbit for teh desired time.


How much fire power do you need to send a rocket to the moon?

It depends on the size, weight and shape of the rocket, but the amount of fuel used in NASA rockets is about 1000 tons of fuel per launch. The combined thrusting force required is around 25,000,000 N.


How do you get extra fuel on astro knights?

If you mean for the original ship powered by the fuel rod, you never need to replace it. You will crash on the moon and you will make a new rocket for your travels. And if you run out of shields with the rocket, you will automatically be teleported to the moon and the shields will be replenished.


Why does rocket taking off from the earth needs much more fuel than the same rocket taking off from the moon?

dunno and it need answer gravity is very strong on earth as the rocket gets higher gravity gets weaker they have to overpower gravity to lift of


How much fuel did Apollo 13 need to get to the moon?

Apollo 13 never made it to the moon, suffering a catastrophic failure en route. The Apollo missions in general used 5.625 million pounds of fuel in all three four stages of the Saturn V rocket.


How would you get to the moon?

To reach the moon, you would typically need to launch a spacecraft using a powerful rocket. The spacecraft would travel through space for about three days before entering the moon's orbit and landing on its surface. The spacecraft would then need to take off again and return to Earth.


What energy can you use to go to the moon?

Rocket fuel is typically used to propel a spacecraft to the moon. The rockets have powerful engines that burn fuel, producing the necessary thrust to escape Earth's gravity and reach the moon's orbit. The fuel can be a combination of liquid or solid propellants that generate the energy needed for the spacecraft to travel through space.


How much fool is needed to get to the moon and how much does it weigh?

Assuming you meant Fuel (not food which cannot answer due to too many variables) the answer is also hard to answer.However as an example - which explains the major point - That you need A LOT of it might help.When we were going to the moon in the 60s and 70s we required almost 100 lbs of fuel for every pound sent to the moon. Take a look at the rockets used. That little cap on the top of the rocket was the spaceship. 90% plus of the rocket was boosters and fuel! Almost all of it used up just to get 300 miles up out of the Earths gravity.

How much fuel does a rocket need to take off?

The amount of fuel a rocket needs to take off depends on its size, payload, and destination. However, rockets are designed to be as fuel-efficient as possible to maximize payload capacity and range. The fuel needed for a rocket launch is carefully calculated by engineers to ensure a successful mission.


Why do space probes go to space?

Since we can't get human beings past the moon, we need space probes to explore past the moon. We don't have the technology and fuel to build a rocket that travels that far.
