Together they produce 3‚265 kilonewtons (734‚000 lbf) of thrust at sea level and 3‚630 kN (816‚100 lbf) in vacuum.[6] As Orbital has little experience with large liquid stages and LOX propellant‚ some of the Antares first stage work was contracted to the Ukrainian Yuzhnoye SDO‚ designers of the Zenit series.[11] The core provided by Yuzhnoye

Procedure 1. First we lined up against a wall to see how high we got from being on the ground. 2. Then we jumped and measured how high we got. 3. Then I documented the information Data/Analysis Start height: 60 centimeters Finish height: 120 centimeters Hang Time: So using the formula t=

ethical situation surrounding the decision to launch the space shuttle Challenger in January 1986 involved the highest level of management at three space centers: Kennedy Space Center in Florida‚ Johnson Space Center in Houston‚ and the Marshall Space Flight Center. Management and engineers with Morton Thiokol‚ a NASA contractor that manufactured the solid booster rockets‚ also joined these discussions that resulted in catastrophic failure. Launch discussions took place throughout the day and evening

ISRO subsequently developed two other rockets: the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) for putting satellites into polar orbits and the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) for placing satellites into geostationary orbits. These rockets have launched numerous communications satellites‚ earth observation

They got the answer by late afternoon after the midlevel NASA managers are on the phone with Thiokol managers‚ who point out that the booster’s ruberry O-rings‚ which seal in hot gases‚ might be affected by cold. This concern brings in officials from NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center which buys the rockets from Thiokol and readies them for launch. Marshall managers decide a three-way telephone conference needed between
