NASA

Some of the Apollo crew members include Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins from Apollo 11; Jim Lovell, Fred Haise, and Jack Swigert from Apollo 13; and Gene Cernan, Harrison Schmitt, and Ronald Evans from Apollo 17.

Explorer-I, officially Satellite 1958 Alpha (and sometimes referred to as Explorer 1), was the first Earth satellite of the United States, having been launched at 10:48pm EST on 31 January 1958.

The shuttles have the capacity to carry 8 astronauts, but usually only 7 are on each mission. Sometimes the extra seat will be taken by the astronaut being returned to earth from the International Space Station.

2.75 x 10^6 kg Im doing an AP physics problem on it right now ^^

UV rays are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes light, radio, x-ray, infrared, and other "waves". All of these travel through space as photons. Photons behave both as particles and as waves. Their particle nature lets them travel through space, where there is nothing to conduct them, as a wave would normally need.

Apollo 11 was launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, from Pad 39A.

A fine suit is normally in the upper 80´s, upper 90´s. The numbers refer to the count, or fineness of the yarn used in the cloth.

A Super 120 is a beautiful made suit, but is pricy. A Super 150 is top of the line, and can be very expensive, indeed.

****************here is the correct answer please read******************

super any number means: how much 1 Grams of wool or any of that fabric will extend, means the smaller the number the heaver the fabric is, its not like a carpet thread roles.

# super 100 and below that is a heavy fabric and usually you want to use that suits in north America like Canada and north states in the U.S,

# Super 120 and above is light and you want to use that suits in the Midwest and California weather, don't be fool by the tag look into the shell fabric inside the suits and should tell you whats made of.

NASA was founded on July 29, 1958, in response to the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik, the first artificial satellite. The founding of NASA was part of the United States' efforts to assert its dominance in space exploration during the Cold War era.

It takes a rocket about 15-20 minutes to reach outer space, which begins at the Kármán line located 62 miles (100 kilometers) above Earth's surface. The exact time can vary depending on the rocket's speed and trajectory.

Rather than using a pencil, astronauts needed a pen that would write while they were in space. So the pen was invented. On earth, they will write regardless of whether you are upside down or rightside up.

sad because we(as mankind) are yet to launchy a space craft into controlled flight at least 5 times out of ten with noone dieing. we so suck! P.S George Bush sux

Spaceships launch from Florida because it's close to the equator. The closer you are to the equator the greater your speed. it give the space shuttle about a 14,000 MPH boost. I believe the control center is in Houston as a "gift" to LBJ from JFK

NASA invented a water filtration system called the Water Recovery System (WRS) in the early 1990s. The WRS was first used on the International Space Station in 2008 to recycle astronauts' urine and sweat into clean drinking water.

The International Space Station is currently operational and inhabited by astronauts. However, it is considered an ongoing project with periodic upgrades and maintenance tasks being conducted to keep it functional and up to date with technology and research needs.

The space shuttle traveled at an average speed of around 17,500 miles per hour (28,000 km/h) in low Earth orbit. This high speed was necessary to balance the force of gravity pulling the shuttle back toward Earth.

The International Space Station (ISS) serves as a research laboratory where scientific experiments are conducted in microgravity. It also allows for international collaboration in space exploration and technological advancement by providing a platform for countries to work together in space. Additionally, the ISS helps to advance our understanding of long-duration space travel, which is crucial for future missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Well, there was lunar geology, solar wind collection, nearly 200 Lunar photographs showing the stars in frequencies no Earth astronomer could see, as Earth's atmosphere screens out those frequencies. (So much for the hoaxbuff claim that no Lunar photographs show the stars!). And the reflectors left behind have allowed lasers in different points of Earth to precisely locate their position with respect to each other, thus allowing us to measure the motion and flexing of the very continents, which could also prove handy someday in predicting earthquakes.

The Challenger Space Shuttle exploded 73 seconds after launch on January 28, 1986, killing all seven crew members on board. The Columbia Space Shuttle disintegrated upon re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere on February 1, 2003, killing all seven crew members on board.

The current administrator of NASA is Bill Nelson, who was appointed by President Joe Biden in 2021. The role of CEO is not a typical designation for the head of NASA, as it is a federal agency under the Department of Defense.

NASA has developed many technologies such as memory foam, scratch-resistant lenses, and water filtration systems. They have also made significant contributions to fields like aeronautics, robotics, and materials science.
