plantfit 7,215 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 The Americans tell us that it would be too expensive to launch another moon mission, why? they are nearly half way there already with the space station and to launch a space ship from there would require a lot less fuel (the most expensive and the most heavy part of a rocket) than it would from the earth with the gravitational pull that's involved, they tell us that the next visit will be to Mars but why not use the moon as a launch pad? less gravity equals less fuel equals smaller space ship or same size space ship with more capacity for crew or spares Rog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beefsteak 304 Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Well as for the using of the Moon as a pit stop, it's the equivalent of driving from my house to Cape Town and having a pit stop at the end of my drive.!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

plantfit 7,215 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 It's still a lot less fuel to carry though as opposed to breaking through the earths atmosphere and gravitational pull, but in typical yank fashion once they've been to a place they are never quite so welcome to go back again Rog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
littlebro 233 Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Associated Press 2009-02-12 10:42 PM The collision between U.S. and Russian communication satellites this week _ the first such crash in space _ has created speeding clouds of debris that threaten other unmanned spacecraft in nearby orbits, Russian officials and experts said Thursday. The smashup 800 kilometers (500 miles) over Siberia involved a derelict Russian spacecraft designed for military communications and a U.S. Iridium satellite, which serves commercial customers as well as the U.S. Department of Defense. NASA said it would take weeks to know the full magnitude of Tuesday's crash, but both NASA and Russia's Roscosmos said there was little risk to the international space station and its three crew members. "There is no immediate danger, but we will carefully monitor the situation," Russian Mission Control spokesman Valery Lyndin said. He noted that the station's orbit has been adjusted in the past to dodge space debris. The space junk also poses no threat to the space shuttle set to launch Feb. 22 with seven astronauts, U.S. officials said, though that issue will be reviewed. The collision scattered fragments in orbits ranging from about 500 to 1,300 kilometers (about 300 miles to 800 miles) above Earth, said the chief of staff for the Russian military's Space Forces, Maj.-Gen. Alexander Yakushin. The Iridium orbiter weighed 1,235 pounds (560 kilograms), he said, and the decommissioned Kosmos-2251 military communications craft weighed nearly a ton. The Kosmos was launched in 1993, and went out of service two years later in 1995, Yakushin said. Both the U.S. Space Surveillance Network and Russian Space Forces are tracking the debris, believed to be traveling at speeds of around 200 meters _ or about 660 feet _ per second. Russian space expert Igor Lisov said the debris may threaten earth-tracking and weather satellites in similar orbits, as well as a host of old Soviet-built nuclear-powered spacecraft in higher orbits. If one of the derelict nuclear-powered satellites collides with the debris, radioactive fallout would pose no threat to Earth, Lisov said, but their speeding wreckage could multiply the hazard to other satellites.
