What else can I help you with?
Did the space shuttle ever land on the moon?
No. The space shuttle is built for low Earth orbit, not moon landings.
Carries a crew of five to seven and is designed to go only into Earth's orbit?
Oh, dude, you're talking about a space shuttle! It's like this big ol' spaceship that takes a bunch of people into Earth's orbit. It's like a fancy space taxi for astronauts. So yeah, it's got room for a crew of five to seven, and it's all about that Earth orbit life.
Does space shuttle revolve around earth before going to other planets?
Space shuttles are not designed to go to other planets, they stay in a near earth orbit, orbiting earth several times in a mission before returning back to earth. They don't really go far from our planet.
How many space shuttle visit Venus?
None yet. We have not sent one out of low earth orbit even.
Is there a man passing Pluto in the fastest space shuttle?
No. No space shuttle was ever built to leave orbit around Earth. The New Horizons space probe, an unmanned spacecraft, flew past Pluto in July 2015.
How does a space shuttle escape the earth orbit?
The shuttle never leaves Earth orbit, it simply goes into orbit and then returns. Moving to a higher orbit requires additional speed and manuevering, as when visiting the ISS.
Does the space shuttle orbit the earth in what's called high orbit?
No. It is in low earth orbit.
What was the last space shuttle to orbit earth?
Space Shuttle Atlantis.
What is the second space shuttle to orbit the earth?
The second space shuttle to orbit the Earth was the Space Shuttle Challenger. It completed its first mission on April 9, 1983.
How far is the shuttle from earth when in orbit?

How long does it take for the shuttle to land?
The space shuttle typically takes about 30 minutes to land once it begins its descent from orbit. The landing process involves various maneuvers and adjustments to slow down the shuttle's speed and guide it safely back to Earth.
What was the first space shuttle to reach Earth's Orbit?
The first space shuttle to reach Earth's orbit was the Space Shuttle Columbia, which completed its maiden flight on April 12, 1981.
Triple earth's mass effect its orbit?
The earth's mass has no effect on its orbit. An astronaut on a "space walk" hovering over the space shuttle's cargo bay is in the same earth-orbit as the shuttle itself is, although his mass is much less than the shuttle's mass. At the same time, the shuttle and the astronaut are both in the same solar orbit as the earth is, although each of them has quite a bit less mass than the earth has.
What is the motion of space shuttle?
The space shuttle moves by using its engines to lift off from Earth, then travels through space by following a predetermined flight path. In orbit, the shuttle moves at a speed of around 17,500 miles per hour in order to maintain its trajectory around the Earth. During reentry, the shuttle uses its heat shield to protect itself from the intense heat generated by atmospheric friction.
Can the space shuttle travel to the moon?
No. The space shuttle can only reach low Earth orbit.
Which layer of the atmosphere does the space shuttle orbit the earth?
Thermosphere
How fast did the space shuttle orbit the earth?
17,500 mph
