Yes, as it is necessary for the vehicles to use fuel to perform re-boosts and avoidance burns, for example. ---- Answer provided by Futron Corporation Image: ...

... carefully planned so that there is enough fuel. However, if the spaceship should run out of fuel the astronauts would be lost, unless they could be rescued using another spaceship. ---- Answer provided by Jon H.

... , NASA schedules a Russian re-supply of the ISS propellant tanks. In the future, there may be fuel stations established at strategic points to re-supply the fuel, similar to gas stations on ...

... air runs out. The orbiter can accommodate several tanks of oxygen and nitrogen, and NASA loads more or less depending on the mission duration and crew size. In general, the orbiter will likely run out of other expendables before it runs out of ...

If we were to run out of food and water in space, we would survive as long as we would if we ran out of food and water on Earth—anywhere from three to ...

... oxygen is carried with any mission, just to be sure we don't run out. Eventually we would run out if we somehow lost all the oxygen through a leak, or the systems that ...

... generation equipment, portable breathing equipment, and the spacesuits. On the International Space Station (ISS), astronauts can get in the Soyuz and return home if necessary or isolate other modules that contain ... those where there is oxygen. On the Shuttle, astronauts can go to the ISS. Since space is devoid of breathable air outside of the space vehicles, they plan for every foreseeable contingency to ...

Lower Earth orbits (LEO) are very stable, and it takes months to years for a spacecraft in LEO orbit to decay and re-enter. It is an unlikely situation. The Shuttle and ISS have the ability to perform re-boosts and corrective burns to keep them on orbit and on course. ---- Answer provided by Futron Corporation Image:K2S logosmall.jpg Question and Answer extracted from the book Kids ...

... with a per-flight cost below that of competing ELVs, an RLV can support a range of payload sizes at a fixed cost/kg. Since the cost of adding an extra flight to the ... than the "full recovery" cost, it is possible to extend the range of economic payload sizes downwards. This can provide the customer with a flexible, constant specific cost launcher, while giving the ... fleet production costs. An estimate for the probability distribution of future payloads (to LEO, GTO and polar orbits) is presented. This can then be used to optimize the vehicle market capture to ...
