Space tourism - Artist's view - Cruise shuttle in low earth orbit - Artist's view of a space shuttle of the future in orbit around the Earth. In the background, the International Space Station (ISS). A reusable space tourism “” cruise””” shuttle orbits the earth at an altitude of approximately 250 miles. This spacecraft is 75 feet long by 55 feet wide. On the upper left is the International Space Station (ISS). The ISS is about 360 feet by 240 feet, or slightly larger than a football field.

Space Shuttle - Illustration - Space Shuttle reentry - Artwork - The American Space Shuttle returns to Earth protected by its thermal shield. In order for the Space Shuttle to return to Earth it must shed 18,000 miles per hour of velocity and descend low enough to make an unpowered glide to a landing strip. With 115 tons of vehicle traveling fast enough to circle the globe once every 90 minutes, there is a tremendous amount of kinetic energy to dispose of. The Shuttle disposes this energy like every other manned space vehicle: it uses the Earth's atmosphere to convert its kinetic energy into heat. The Shuttle does this by slowly descending into the atmosphere bellyside - down at a 40 degree angle. This presents a large, blunt surface to the rushing air that continues to slow the orbiter for the next 16 minutes. Through a combination of friction and compression, the temperature of the air around the Shuttle rises to 3,000* F, hot enough to ionize the air into a glowing plasma trail that

With 115 tons of vehicle traveling fast enough to circle the globe once every 90 minutes, there is a tremendous amount of kinetic energy to dispose of. The Shuttle disposes this energy like every other manned space vehicle: it uses the Earth's atmosphere to convert its kinetic energy into heat. The Shuttle does this by slowly descending into the atmosphere bellyside - down at a 40 degree angle. This presents a large, blunt surface to the rushing air that continues to slow the orbiter for the next 16 minutes. Through a combination of friction and compression, the temperature of the air around the Shuttle rises to 3,000* F, hot enough to ionize the air into a glowing plasma trail that

At apogee the lunar cycler is about 300 thousand miles from the Earth and 50 thousand miles beyond the orbit of the Moon (further from Earth than any human has ventured yet).

In the grasp of the station's Canadarm2, the Tranquility module is transferred from its stowage position in space shuttle Endeavour's (STS - 130) payload bay to position it on the port side of the Unity node of the International Space Station (ISS). Tranquility was locked in place with 16 remotely - controlled bolts. February 11 201

Space Shuttle - Illustration - The Space Shuttle enters Earth orbit - Artwork - The American Space Shuttle maneuvers to position itself in orbit around the Earth. The Space Shuttle reveals a belly covered with thousands of individual thermally protective silica tiles, scorched and charred from numerous reentries of past missions. Nine minutes after launching from Nasa's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the US Space Shuttle shuts down its engines, she's its massive external fuel tank, and enters freefall 60 miles above the Atlantic ocean. Traveling “” upside down”” at 16,700 miles per hour, the Shuttle has already put over a thousand miles between itself and the launch tower. If uncorrected however, the current trajectory will bring the orbiter back to Earth somewhere halfway around the globe. In order to propel the Shuttle to it's final orbit - - anywhere from 116 and 600 miles high - - the two Orbital Maneuvering System thrusters (the smallest nozzles near the tail) will fire until th

ISS: Unity, Zarya and Zvezda modules. 09/2000 - ISS: Unity, Zarya and Zvezda modules. 09/2000 - Unity, Zarya and Zvezda modules photographs from the Atlantis shuttle. 18/09/2000 Backdropped against black space above Earth's horizon, the International Space Station (ISS) is seen following its undocking with the Space Shuttle Atlantis. After accomplishing all mission objectives in outfitting the station for the first resident crew, the seven astronauts and cosmonauts undocked at 3:46 GMT on Sept. 18 over Russia near the northeastern portion of the Ukraine. When Atlantis was at a safe distance from the station, about 450 feet, astronaut Scott D. Altman, pilot, performed a 90 - minute, double - loop fly around to enable the crew to document the station's exterior. He fired Atlantis' jets one final time to separate from the station at 5:35 (GMT) September 18 2000
