Why Space Shuttles Take Off Only Vertically

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

The view of a rust-colored rocket carrying an orbiter on its back and rushing to the sky on its fiery tail is iconic. But considering the last Space Shuttle launch was back in 2011, is this the last we’ll ever see of such a thing? What’s next? Could an improved shuttle be made that takes off and lands like an airplane?
Our planet is a complex hodge-podge of all kinds of matter, which is combined into an impressive mass. All that mass works like a colossal magnet that allows the Earth to maintain one thing we all know and love - the atmosphere. But the atmosphere itself is also filled with matter. Airplanes don’t struggle this much with getting through the atmosphere. But what about shuttles?

SUMMARY:
- Going through a vacuum is like cutting through the air, whereas getting through the atmosphere is like going through jelly.
- Airplanes don’t struggle this much with getting through the atmosphere, because they use its density to lift up from the ground and maintain altitude.
- Two things help them with that: the thrust of their engines and the form of their wings.
- Basically, wings make it so the airplane can glide on the air. But of course, that wouldn’t be possible without a huge force pushing the airplane along.
- But let’s look at that space shuttle. The first obvious things are the cute, tiny, stubby wings that wouldn’t be any use for a horizontal takeoff.
- The airplanes’ engines need air from the atmosphere to work. The shuttle’s engines obviously didn’t, since atmospheric air would’ve been hard to find in space.
- To fly up, a rocket engine has to throw off enough thrust, and burn the right amount of fuel to do the job.
- The power of a shuttle with three engines and two boosters is around 7.8 million pounds of thrust!
- But would it even be possible to fly a shuttle into orbit if it was modified to use the atmosphere like planes? Unfortunately, the answer is no.
- To escape the atmosphere, any object that starts from the Earth would have to be fast enough to cross the point of so-called escape velocity.
- This velocity is needed to overpower the gravitational pull of the planet and let an object go into orbit.
- A space elevator is the concept of a huge tower that connects to a satellite at the top, which moves in line with the rotational movement of the Earth itself.
- Сarbon nanotubes were proved not sturdy enough for building a tower this huge, so the search for an ideal material continues.
- Another project that uses a similar approach is called a SpaceTram. It’s a vertical vacuum tunnel that pushes a magnetically levitated shuttle.
- It’s possible that people will use planes as a way of getting into orbit. The plane won’t go to space by itself. Instead, it’ll be used as a launch platform.

    Hmmm I wonder if the makers of this video have even seen a space shuttle launch... yes the shuttle took off vertically and stayed vertical for about 20sec. After 20sec it performed a roll program and started pitching over to pick up horizontal speed. Once going fast enough and after circulation burns it would then be in orbit. Going straight up is a really bad way to get into orbit.

    The video is really not good. Many people have all these misconceptions about space, and this video doesn't help. It shows a shuttle that goes straight, with arrows straight away from earth, and they talk about "escape velocity" there. They don't show the most important basic information, that orbit is not about altitude but about sideway speed. They forget to just start with Newton's cannonball.

    In fact it's almost impossible to get to orbit only vertically because you climb higher but your trajectory still is going back to earth. You'll escape from earth gravity when you reach the escape velocity, directly from sub-orbital.

    It has an exhaust of water vapor. Being a closed cycle engine simply means the exhaust from the turbo pump's preburner is cycled through the main combustion chamber and exits with the rest of the exhaust. Also the RS-25 didn't have any extra hypergolic engines attached to it, the shuttle on the other hand had several including the OMS engines as well as the maneuvering thrusters.

    5:57 This is not true "Escape velocity" is the speed required for a craft to entirely leave a planet's sphere of influence (the entire gravitational range of a planet). That is not orbit. Orbit, in the case of low earth orbit, is just escaping the atmosphere, and thus, the drag of the air. Then going fast enough that you fall just as fast as you go forwards. THAT is orbit. And escaping the sphere of influence is basically just going in a larger orbit around a star or a galaxy's core. NOT orbit.

    Bright Side, you really missed how the Shuttles flew. They didn't fly straight up, they flew in and arc that both gained altitude as well as achieved the escape velocity. So for part of the flight they were nearly horizontal. The only time they were purely vertical was the first couple hundred feet, then they would roll to the desired orbital angle and start a gravity turn at the same time.

    The shuttle wasn't capable of achieving escape velocity (11 km/sec), but only low Earth orbit that requires slightly less than 8 km/sec. The only manned spacecraft that has been capable of that so far is the combination of Apollo and Saturn V rocket (not the Saturn IB).

    All orbital vehicles need to do a gravity turn (AKA pitch over/pitch kick) to get into orbit because you need 17,000mph of horizontal velocity to stay in orbit if the shuttle ascended straight up its velocity would make it either come back to earth in the wrong area (suborbital) or escape earth’s gravity all together and get stuck in deep space for ever.

    But craft don't remain vertical, not too long after liftoff they reorient against the rotation of the Earth, to the Earths rotational speed adds to the relative orbital speed of the space craft.

    The space shuttle program was discontinued years ago. By the way; they started off launching vertically, but during flight pitched to a more horizontal flight path to escape the gravity pull of Earth faster.

    Exactly! Getting something into orbit requires that most of the acceleration is horizontal, not vertical. When something is in a circular orbit, it means that the centrifugal force caused by the sideways speed is just strong enough to balance the gravity and the object will stay there unless other forces act on it.
