six times, including a moon landing, and later headed the office that chose crews for space shuttle missions.
Did John Young land on the Moon?
Houston, Texas U.S. John Watts Young (Septem – Janu) was an American astronaut, naval officer and aviator, test pilot, and aeronautical engineer. He became the

the coordination, scheduling, and control of activities of the astronauts. Young served as Chief of the Astronaut Office until May 1987.
How fast did the shuttle travel at re entry?
7700 m/s
The Shuttle has kinetic energy due to its speed of
7700 m/s and potential energy due to its altitude. It must lose all this energy in only about one-half hour to come to a full stop on the runway (at Earth's surface).

Why did NASA stop going to the Moon?
But in 1970 future Apollo missions were cancelled. Apollo 17 became the last manned mission to the Moon, for an indefinite amount of time. The main reason for this was money.
The cost of getting to the Moon was, ironically, astronomical.
Who is the youngest male astronaut?
18-year-old Oliver Daemen from Brabant became the youngest astronaut ever this week after taking part in the first crewed flight by Jeff Bezos' aerospace company, Blue Origin.
Why is reentry so fast?
The usual approach to reentry is fast and hot. There's a lot of energy to be lost, and doing it quickly has some advantages:
You can dump energy into hypersonic air, and then leave that heat behind so that the hot part is over before the inside of the craft heats up.
How hot is reentry to Earth?
3000 degrees Fahrenheit
During re-entry, the shuttle is going so fast, it compresses the air ahead of it. The compression of the air layers near the leading edges of the shuttle is quick, causing the temperature of the air to rise to as high as
3000 degrees Fahrenheit! Being in contact with the shuttle, it heats the shuttle's surface.
Can you be an astronaut if you have depression?

How fast is re-entry?
As a spacecraft re-enters the earth's atmosphere, it is traveling very much faster than the speed of sound. The aircraft is said to be hypersonic. Typical low earth orbit re-entry speeds are near
17,500 mph and the Mach number M is nearly twenty five, M < 25.
Do astronauts feel speed?
It is not possible to feel speed while in a spacecraft. Astronauts in orbit travel at 28000 km/h but feel absolutely nothing, even if they're outside.
