How much does the Columbia space shuttle weigh?
the space shuttle weighed as much as roman
How long does it take to go to the sun with a space shuttle?
According to NASA’s website and a video produced in 2013, it takes about 3 days from initial launch to reach the International Space Station. However, that same year, a Russian Soyuz vessel made the journey in under 6 hours.
How much does it cost to send someone into space?
The cost to send someone into space can vary greatly depending on the type of mission, spacecraft, and space agency or company involved. Currently, the cost for a seat on a commercial spaceflight can range from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of dollars.
What direction will the shuttle come from when it appears in the sky?
forwards It is always traveling around the Earth in the same direction as we are rotating, but much faster. The space shuttle when in space can point in any direction, as there in no up and down. It still keeps moving in the same direction, even with engines facing forward.
How much co2 is produced when the space shuttle goes up?
The fuel used by the main space shuttle engines is super-cold liquid hydrogen, kept at a temperature of -253oC. The hydrogen fuel is combusted with liquid oxygen in a reaction that reaches temperatures of up to 3136oC to creates a high-speed stream of gas which ultimately generates the thrust necessary for launching the shuttle. This gas stream is essentially just very hot water steam with no CO2.
How much time does the space shuttle take to reach in space?
approx.1 month
How much time it takes to reach out-space to the space shuttle?
It takes about 8.5 minutes for a spacecraft to reach outer space from the surface of the Earth. This is known as the "space border," where the Earth's atmosphere transitions into the vacuum of space. Once a spacecraft crosses this boundary, it is considered to be in outer space.
How much time does it take for the space shuttle to reach orbit from launching?
depends where you launch from and where you go
How much thrust for space shuttle to break orbit?
The space shuttle's main engines provided approximately 418,000 pounds of thrust each, and the solid rocket boosters provided an additional 1.3 million pounds of thrust each. Together, this allowed the space shuttle to break Earth's orbit and reach space.
How much does the Columbia space shuttle weigh?
the space shuttle weighed as much as roman
How much does it cost for a space shuttle flight?
The average cost of a space shuttle mission is $450 million
How much time does it take to fly to the space?
It takes about 8 minutes from launch for the shuttle to reach space. Wow? The space shuttle and the International Space Station orbit the Earth about 16 times a day. They are actually traveling faster than a bullet and together with the Earth's gravity keep them in orbit around our planet
How much fuel does a space shuttle use in space?
A space shuttle typically uses about 1.5 million pounds of fuel during liftoff and ascent to reach orbit. In space, the shuttle relies on its orbital maneuvering system and reaction control system, which use smaller amounts of fuel for activities like adjusting its path and orientation in space.
How much does a space shuttle weigh at liftoff?
A space shuttle's weight at liftoff is approximately 4.5 million pounds.
How much space does it have in a space shuttle?
Enough to carry a bus in it's payload bay.
How much did the challenger space shuttle weigh?
200,000 pounds
How much does a space shuttle weigh in kg?
1000 pickles
