Space Shuttle

i went to...

i arrived at the...

i was in awe by the...

the ... was huge!

i was so excited because i was about to go into the ...

:)

AND so much MORE just remember that SPACE STATION is a noun

:)

No, Yuri Gagarin was not the first person to step on the moon. Neil Armstrong was the first person to do so on July 20, 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission. Yuri Gagarin was the first human to journey into outer space on April 12, 1961.

Cooperation and teamwork are crucial on space shuttles because the success of the mission relies on the coordinated efforts of astronauts working together towards a common goal. In the confined and high-pressure environment of a space shuttle, effective teamwork ensures efficient problem-solving, enhances safety measures, and promotes overall mission success.

The first Atlantis mission took place from the 3rd to the 7th of October 1985.

The name of John Glenn's space shuttle when he first orbited the Earth in 1962 was Friendship 7.

Space shuttles are not equipped to go on long distance voyages, nor can they hold enough fuel. shuttles are mostly used for travel to and from the International Space Station and low earth orbit. If you had an infinite supply of fuel and you could just rocket in a strait path while Uranus is at the closest point in its orbit it would only take a bit over a year. Unfortunately, you have to factor in the gravitational pull of surrounding bodies and as previously stated the limited amount of fuel. so it would be much much longer.

The space shuttle that was reused was the Space Shuttle Orbiter, a part of NASA's Space Shuttle system. The first orbiter to be reused was Columbia, followed by Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour.

Yes, the space shuttle launch of Discovery $5 coin is indeed silver. The coin is made from 5 troy ounces of .999 fine silver and was issued in 2020 by the United States Mint to commemorate the space shuttle Discovery.

The shuttle spacecraft does nort burn up at all when it does reenters the earths atmosphere, even of the heat. The reason is that there are all heat preventing tiles on the spacecraft from burning, and keeping the astronauts safe.

The major difference between a spacecraft and a space shuttle is that the other spacecrafts can not be reused once the do return to the earth with the astronauts. But the shuttle is launched lime a rocket, flys like a plane and lands like a plane on a runway, it is always reusable.

A space shuttle is protected against the extreme heat of re-entry into Earth's atmosphere by using heat-resistant materials, such as protective tiles made of silica and ceramics. These tiles are designed to withstand temperatures up to 2,300 degrees Fahrenheit. Additionally, the shuttle's shape allows for the dissipation of heat and minimizes direct contact with the superheated plasma.

A shuttle relay is a track and field event where team members take turns running equal distances before passing a baton to the next member. It typically involves four runners completing two legs each, with each leg consisting of a sprint down one straight section of the track and back. The event requires precise baton exchanges and coordination between team members.

During a stage five space shuttle flight, the main engines shut down, and the external fuel tank is jettisoned. The orbiter then maneuvers into position for orbital operations and payload deployment. The crew completes final checks and prepares for activities in orbit.

Space missions are important for countries as they help to advance scientific research, technology, and innovation. They also provide opportunities for international collaboration and cooperation, boost a country's global reputation, and can lead to the development of valuable resources and technologies that benefit society as a whole.

It takes about 8.5 minutes for a space shuttle to reach orbit and then rendezvous with the International Space Station, which orbits approximately 250 miles above Earth.

The name of the first Space Shuttle that was launched was Columbia. It embarked on its maiden voyage on April 12, 1981.

Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, located in Florida, is one of the primary launch sites for rockets headed into space. It is also home to the Kennedy Space Center.

A balloon can reach the upper atmosphere, also known as near space, in a few hours. However, reaching the actual boundary of space, which is about 100 kilometers (62 miles) above sea level, would require a specialized high-altitude balloon and can take several hours to reach that height.

space is a vacuum, their is no air to slow things down so small forces which are applied over short periods of time can make an object go very fast. like the voyager which passed by planets had had got a boost from planet's gravitational forces. in fact it is said that they travel faster then bullets.

The mass of the space vehicle will not change while in orbit unless parts are added or removed. However, the weight of the space vehicle will fluctuate due to changes in gravitational forces as it orbits different celestial bodies.

It takes about 150 seconds (2.5 minutes) for the shuttle to get out of Earth's atmosphere to the edge of space, defined for most purposes as 62 miles (100 km.) above sea level.

The International Space Station is raised using thrusters on board or by visiting spacecraft. These thrusters propel the station to higher orbits by changing its speed and altitude. Additionally, the station can also be raised by docked spacecraft applying thrust in the opposite direction of the station's movement to gradually increase its altitude.

Yes, "shuttle" is a VCCV (vowel-consonant-consonant-vowel) word because it has the pattern of a vowel followed by a consonant, then two consonants, and ending with a vowel.
