Computer Modeling/Simulation: Space Shuttle Landing

by Jackie Brock

Submitted : Spring 2011

This was a project about a space shuttle finding a new planet, and use physics to figure out gravitational force of the planet, how fast the shuttle would be going if it dropped from 50 meters up. Force it takes to slow it to a complete stop, as well as the escape velocity and force it takes for the shuttle to take off, and the force needed to complete an orbit.
