What is the re-entry temperature of the Space Shuttle (google for the answer)? Why don’t you burn up at the reentry temperature of 17318.5K for this Mach 20 flow? Why do you think that the body should actually re-enter the Earth's atmosphere in the opposite direction. (ie.. blunt/flat surface first.)arrow_forwardLike most spacecraft returning from orbit, the Apollo command module entered the atmosphere at 7.8 km/s. In front of the capsule was a shock front, the leading edge of the shock front we call a bow shock. Let’s consider the conditions as it passes an altitude of 40,000 feet, at 461 miles per hour. 1a) What are the density, pressure, and temperature behind the shock front? 1b) In the frame of the shock, what is the velocity at which the gas approaches the shock? What is the velocity with which the gas leaves the shock? 1c) In the frame fixed on the Earth, what is the velocity of the post- shock gas?arrow_forward
