Space Shuttle

The most complex machine ever built, the space shuttle has more than 2.5 million parts, including almost 370 kilometers (230 miles) of wire, more than 1,060 plumbing valves and connections, over 1,440 circuit breakers, and more than 27,000 insulating tiles and thermal blankets.

The last space shuttle launch took place on July 8, 2011, and it was broadcast live on NASA TV as well as various news channels. It may be possible to find archived footage of the launch online on platforms like YouTube or NASA's website. Live streams of future space launches can be found on NASA TV and space agency websites.

A space shuttle's wings have a delta-wing shape, which is a triangular shape that helps with stability and lift during atmospheric flight. The wings are also reinforced with thermal protection tiles to withstand the high temperatures during reentry into the Earth's atmosphere.

The space shuttle Challenger exploded in 1986.

The space shuttle program included several shuttles, such as Atlantis, Challenger, Columbia, Discovery, and Endeavour, which transported crew to and from space.

Space vehicles return to Earth by re-entering the atmosphere at a precise angle to slow down and land safely. For spacecraft like the Space Shuttle, they utilize heat shields to protect against the intense heat generated during re-entry. Parachutes are often used to slow down and guide the final descent for splashdown in the ocean or landing on solid ground.

The International Space Station (ISS) is currently operational and being used for scientific research and international collaborations. It is expected to remain in operation until at least 2024, with discussions ongoing about extending its lifespan beyond that.

A space shuttle still has to leave the atmosphere, we aren't building them in space. While leaving the atmosphere a space shuttle causes a lot of friction as it rubs against the air on the way up.

If this question refers to the Voyager program, the answer is, we don't know yet. Both the program, and the two deep space probes Voyager 1 and 2, are still on-going.

Both probes have enough electrical energy that they are estimated to be able to continue operating to about 2020. At this point, the program will most likely close down, but the probes will still continue travel on a ballistic trajectory, and where they will end up is anyones guess.

Astronauts on the space shuttle combat the effects of weightlessness by exercising to maintain muscle and bone strength. They also use special equipment like foot restraints and handrails to anchor themselves and perform tasks safely in a microgravity environment.

The space shuttle that landed on the moon was called Apollo. The Apollo missions were a series of manned missions conducted by NASA during the 1960s and 1970s, with Apollo 11 being the first to successfully land astronauts on the moon in 1969.

The first rocket of India was named Nike Apache, which was launched on November 21, 1963. It was a sounding rocket that was launched from Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station (TERLS) in Thumba, Kerala.

The space shuttle Discovery was an artificial satellite, as it was a spacecraft designed and launched by humans to orbit Earth and carry out specific missions, rather than occurring naturally in space.

Yes, there is gravity on the International Space Station (ISS), but it is not due to the station being in Earth's orbit. The sensation of weightlessness experienced by astronauts aboard the ISS is because they are in a state of constant free fall towards Earth, creating the effect of microgravity.

Galileo was considered a space probe during its journey to Jupiter because it was actively collecting data and transmitting information back to Earth. Once it arrived in orbit around Jupiter, it transitioned to being a satellite, where it continued to gather data and transmit information, but now it revolved around the planet instead of actively traveling through space.

The Space Shuttle Challenger exploded during launch on January 28th 1986 killing 7 crew members.

A shuttle court is typically 44 feet long and 20 feet wide for singles matches, and 44 feet long and 22 feet wide for doubles matches. The court is divided in half by a net that is 5 feet tall at the center.

There have been two space shuttles that exploded during launch: Challenger in 1986 and Columbia in 2003.

Ten. Six on the front of the flight deck, two on the roof of the flight deck, and two on the rear of the flight deck to watch payload bay opperations.

In Enchanted Kingdom, the space shuttle attraction is classified as a thrill ride. It offers guests a thrilling experience with its rotating and swinging motion, simulating a space shuttle launch.

The "bar-be-cue roll" on Apollo 13 was a procedure used to evenly heat up the spacecraft by slowly rotating it along its longitudinal axis. This helped regulate temperature control and prevent any one side of the spacecraft from becoming overheated or too cold. It was a critical technique used to maintain the survival of the crew during the mission.

Friction between the space shuttle and the atmosphere generates heat during reentry. The high speeds at which the shuttle travels cause air molecules to compress and heat up, leading to the fiery heat shield protecting the spacecraft.

The spacecraft was named after one of the first British ships of exploration. There were four ships in the fleet but the name comes specific from HMS Discovery that sailed in the late 1700's under Captain Cook.

Only liquid fuelled rockets (and then only some) rely on oxygen as the oxidizer. It is carried in liquid form in a tank (or tanks). It is them pumped and mixed with the fuel in the combustion chamber where the combustion reaction takes place. The combusion products then exit the rocket nozzle.

In solid fuel rockets, the oxidizer (whatever that may be) is usually mixed with the fuel.

Space shuttles and underwater vehicles are both designed to operate in extreme environments; space shuttles in the vacuum of space and underwater vehicles in the depths of the ocean. They both require specialized equipment to sustain life support systems for astronauts/divers, to provide propulsion, and to withstand high pressures or vacuum conditions. Additionally, both types of vehicles rely on advanced technology and engineering to navigate and perform their respective missions.
