14:36 By 3.5 minutes into the flight it has reached a point where it could safely make it down to emergency landing sites in Europe should there be a problem or engine failure... just how fast that ship is traveling. I understand there would be additional time in the glide back down but still, just an incredible flight.

The space age was symbol of America's optimal capability. It is only when America begins launching spacecraft again that I will be convinced that the economy is back to normal and that America is great again. Is anyone aware that the space shuttle program carried the modules and spare parts that built the international space station?

Can anyone help me with the answer? Why can we use "mach number" when space shuttle at the altitude of 350000 fts ? At that height, we are in the thin air. If the air is thin, how the sound transmission? ( I mean the mediator is only a little. ) However, the mach number is the ratio of flow velocity past a boundary to the local speed of sound. How do we get a local speed of sound when we are in the situation of almost vacuum?

Hello

Grenherb18 days ago

so it's around 65 miles in high altitude, but Technically, objects in low-Earth orbit are at an altitude of between 160 to 2,000 km (99 to 1200 mi) above the Earth’s surface. Any object below this altitude will being to suffer from orbital decay and will rapidly descend into the atmosphere, either burning up or crashing on the surface. Objects at this altitude also have an orbital period (i.e. the time it will take them to orbit the Earth once) of between 88 and 127 minutes. Objects that are in a low-Earth orbit are subject to atmospheric drag since they are still within the upper layers of Earth’s atmosphere - specifically the thermosphere (80 - 500 km; 50 - 310 mi), theremopause (500-1000 km; 310-620 mi), and the exosphere (1000 km; 620 mi, and beyond). The higher the object’s orbit, the lower the 1atmospheric density and drag. However, beyond 1000 km (620 mi), objects will be subject to Earth’s Van Allen Radiation Belts - a zone of charged particles that extends to a distance of 60,000 km from the Earth’s surface. In these belts, solar wind and cosmic rays have been trapped by Earth’s magnetic field, leading to varying levels of radiation. Hence why missions to LEO aim for attitudes between 160 to 1000 km (99 to 620 mi). think there missing another 100-200 miles to get to space.

At 14:56 again the debris of the form fuel tank had fallen out from orange the fuel tank. And the spacecraft is hited by the debris. And this is a exactly similar reason which lead to a Columbia disaster .

LAST COMMENT: ROGER ROLL DISCOVERY & THANKS FOR 30 YEARS OF GREAT SPACE MEMORIES! YOU NOW WILL BE ENTERING THE MUSEUM PHASE OF YOUR LIFESPAN AT THE KENNEDY SPACE CENTER. GOOD LUCK TO NASA & IT'S FUTURE OF SPACE TRAVEL IN THE POST-SHUTTLE ERA. GOOD LUCK TO THE NEXT GENERATION SPACE SHUTTLE: THE DREAM CHASER. THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES. (RIP) IN MEMORY OF THE CHALLENGER AND COLUMBIA SHUTTLE CREWS, THEY WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.

PS: NEXT GENERATION SPACE SHUTTLE AS MANUFACTURED BY PRIVATE INDUSTRY IN TANDEM W/NASA WILL BE "THE DREAM CHASER." A MULTI-USE LAUNCH VEHICLE ABLE TO HAVE 7-8 MANNED MISSIONS AS WELL AS POSSIBLE UNMANNED FUTURE LAUNCHES. GOOD LUCK TO THE DREAM CHASER-NASA'S NEXT GENERATION SPACE SHUTTLE. SEE THE MReporter VIDEO RE: THIS PRIVATE INDUSTRY PROJECT. GOOD LUCK TO ALL! OLD SPACE SHUTTLE PROGRAM: NOW RETIRED FROM LAUNCH SERVICE. THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES NASA RE: THE OLD SHUTTLE PROGRAM. (RIP) TO THE CREWS OF CHALLENGER & COLUMBIA.

PS: SORT OF A SAD AND YET HISTORIC MOMENT AS THIS WAS THE FINAL LAUNCH OF SPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERY ON FEBRUARY 24TH, 2011 FROM THE KENNEDY SPACE CENTER IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. IT WILL BE VERY INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT THE FUTURE OF NASA SPACE EXPLORATION WILL BE LIKE & WHAT KIND OF LAUNCH VEHICLES WILL BE UTILIZED TO EXPLORE A POSSIBLE FUTURE RETURN TO THE MOON AND/OR MARS AND BEYOND IN THE YEARS AHEAD UPON CONGRESSIONAL FUNDING BEING APPROVED. GOOD LUCK TO NASA AND ITS BRIGHT FUTURE AS IT MOVES BEYOND THE "SHUTTLE YEARS." THERE IS CURRENTLY A NEW MEMORIAL EXHIBIT AT THE KSC RE: A MEMORIAL TRIBUTE TO THE CREWS OF CHALLENGER & COLUMBIA, ALSO AVAILABLE FOR VIEW ON MReporter. GOOD LUCK NASA!-MR. GARCIA IN SF, CA. (FBI-RET.)

Randolph Garcia2 months ago

NOTE: THE INTERESTING QUESTION HERE IS SINCE THE FINAL SHUTTLE LAUNCH WAS STS-133 IN FY 2011 AS PICTURED ABOVE, WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF NASA NOW? WILL WE RETURN TO THE MOON OR MARS? AND IF SO WHEN? WHAT IS THE NEXT SUCCESSOR TO THE SHUTTLE IN THE 21RST CENTURY? UPON FUNDING APPROVAL FROM THE US CONGRESS, NASA IS NOW AT A CROSSROADS, GENERALLY, THEY HAVE A VERY GOOD SHUTTLE RECORD W/TWO TRAGIC EXCEPTIONS, THE SHUTTLES CHALLENGER IN JANUARY 1986 & THE SHUTTLE COLUMBIA DISASTER IN 2003 OF WHICH A SUITABLE RESPECTFUL AND SOLEMN MEMORIAL HAS BEEN RECENTLY DEBUTED AT THE NEWLY RESIGNED KENNEDY SPACE CENTER IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. A MReporter VIDEO IS ONLINE RE: THE NEW MEMORIAL, THE SILENCE OF IT IS DEAFENING! SPACE EXPLORATION AS EXPRESSED BY THE LATE FORMER PRESIDENT REAGAN, IS NOT FOR THE WEAK, BUT FOR THE STRONG ONLY. SAD BUT TRUE. HOPEFULLY UNMANNED ROCKETS WILL BE IN NASA'S FUTURE TO AVOID FUTURE POTENTIAL LOSS OF LIFE IN FUTURE SPACE EXPLORATIONS. GOOD LUCK NASA!-MR. GARCIA IN SF, CA. (FBI-RET.)

How sad to have thrown off these beautiful machines that were space shuttles! they could still render a lot of services; before placing them in museums, they could be improved even if they waited a few years to test new alloys such as titanium / chrome and modify the protection of the external tank to no longer use this foam too dangerous for the integrity of the wings. In this video we see at T + 3 min 52 sec, a piece of tank crashing into the tiles of the shuttle and fortunately miss the right wing! Shuttle is still the best, the best to send men and cargo to the ISS.

I was there that February evening watching that launch. I can tell you this much, after the previous attempt to launch was a no-go and the fact we drove 12 hours to see this, I was extremely happy to see the launch. If I remember correctly it came down to the very last second in the launch window. Having watched the launch I was ecstatic and totally depressed realizing I would never be able to see another launch. Truly amazing stuff.
