Space Shuttle

It is named the International Space Station or ISS.

Apollo 13 was launched from Kennedy Space Center, on April 11, 1970 at 13:13 CST.

Ambisonic music is a form of craft that involves recording instruments in a way that captures the spatial information of the sound. This technique allows the listener to experience the music as if they are surrounded by the instruments in a three-dimensional space, creating a more immersive listening experience.

Space shuttle tiles are primarily made from a material called LI-900, which is a type of lightweight ceramic that is resistant to high temperatures. These tiles are designed to protect the spacecraft from the intense heat generated when reentering Earth's atmosphere.

Yes, all seven astronauts aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger died when it exploded shortly after launch on January 28, 1986.

No, Gemini 7 did not land on the moon. Gemini 7 was a mission carried out by NASA in December 1965 where astronauts Frank Borman and James Lovell orbited the Earth for nearly 14 days, but they did not land on the moon.

yes, yes it does ,,, its very fast like gorilla fast :D

There were a total of six space shuttles in NASA's Space Shuttle program: Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, Endeavour, and Enterprise (which was a prototype and never flew into space).

You need a fuel. You need something that will react or "burn" with it. This is called an oxidizer, even though oxygen is not always what is used. You need a means of forcing the fuel into a combustion chamber. You need a combustion chamber. And you need an exhaust bell for the spent fuel to leave! Some rockets need an igniter, something to set the fuel and oxidizer off. Other rockets use "hypergolic" fuels, which means that the fuel and oxidizer go off just by coming into contact. This is good because not having an igniter means one less thing that can go wrong. The lunar module had this kind of engine.

Solid rockets have the fuel and oxidizer mixed together, just waiting to be ignited. The burning fuel hollows the rocket out, forming a sort of combustion chamber.

If a space shuttle crashes just after launch, it could be due to a variety of factors such as engine failure, structural issues, or external influences like weather conditions. Investigation would be required to determine the exact cause of the crash. Safety measures and protocols are in place to minimize the risk of such incidents.

The space shuttle allowed for reusable spacecraft, reducing the cost of space travel and enabling more frequent missions. It also facilitated the construction and maintenance of the International Space Station, playing a key role in advancing human space exploration capabilities.

The space shuttle provided the ability for reusable access to space, enabling cost-effective transportation of crew, satellites, and payloads. It also offered the capability to retrieve and repair satellites in orbit, which was not possible with earlier spacecraft. Additionally, the space shuttle facilitated longer missions in space due to its extended duration in orbit compared to earlier spacecraft.

A space probe is generally a small, robotic machine that is used to make scientific measurements of the universe and its contents, and can be used in Earth orbit, sent out into deep space never to return to our solar system, and everything in between . A Space Station is a "home away from home" for astronauts to stay for months at a time, conducting science experiments and making observations. As of today space stations have only ever been placed into Low Earth Orbit.

Yes, Apollo 11 was the first successful mission to land astronauts on the moon on July 20, 1969. Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the moon while Michael Collins orbited above in the command module.

it was a reusable spacecraft designed for orbital missions, first launched in 1981. It consisted of an orbiter vehicle, solid rocket boosters, and an external fuel tank. Its missions included satellite deployment, research in microgravity, and construction of the International Space Station.

The Compton gamma-ray telescope detects high-energy gamma rays, which are a type of electromagnetic radiation with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum. These gamma rays are produced by astrophysical processes such as supernovae, pulsars, and black holes.

As of September 2021, NASA does not have any shuttles left to launch. The Space Shuttle program was retired in 2011, with the final mission of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. NASA now relies on commercial partners and other space agencies for crewed missions to space.

If the space shuttle is exiting the atmosphere, that means you are going into space then no the windows will not turn red. However if you are entering the atmosphere the friction caused by air molecules hitting the orbiter will create plasma around the shuttle. You will see a reddish orange glow out the windows but the windows themselves will not turn red.

As of the end of February 2010, NASA has flown 130 space shuttle flights, two of them ending in catastrophe.

The Apollo 1 launch pad testing accident which took the lives of Astronauts Ed White, Roger Chaffee, and Gus Grissom, led to improved launch pad testing procedures, improved QA of electrical/electronic devices, as well as safety procedures and emergency procedures for escape/egress should an accident occur. Many lessons learned from the accident are still incorporated into all Manned Flight spacecraft design and operation.

At the time, the capsule they were were in was saturated with 100% pressurized O2 - the oxygen was ignited by what is believed to be a faulty electronic device that sparked when turned on. In addition to the O2, there were other highly flammable objects in the capsule (e.g., Velcro and the spacesuits themselves), and the access hatch could not be opened for escape without much difficulty.

Robert Goddard became the first person ever to use liquid fuel in a rocket.

It was Apollo one on January's 27,1967 Gus Grissom, Ed white and Roger Chaffee they all perished within 30 secs of smoke inhalation and burns. It was a very sad day,no Apollo mission was manned until Apollo 8 and they used the Saturn v before they where using the Saturn IV. Apollo 8 flow to the moon and circled it and came back to Earth

he did not have kids, but he was the one who discovered cats were part reptiles.

The large open area of a space shuttle used to hold satellites and scientific equipment is called the cargo bay. This is where various payloads can be stored and deployed during a mission.

The first monkey launched into space was a rhesus macaque named Albert I, who was sent aboard a V-2 rocket by the United States in 1948. This mission was part of the U.S. Army's research on the effects of space travel on living organisms.
