  9. It is a SPACE PROBE A 300

  10. Give 3 reasons why we send robotic probes to explore space rather than humans. A 400

  11. Robots do not need food, water and air. Robots do not need sleep Robots do not need to be entertainedand do not get bored or lonely. Robots do not need a return trip home Robots are cheaper Human are not at risk of dying A 400

  12. How are the Saturn V Apollo rockets different than the Space Transport System (Space Shuttle)? A 500

  13. STS / Space Shuttle • 7 astronauts • Can’t go to the moon • More space inside • 2 stages • Can haul large payload into orbit • Apollo/ Saturn V • 3 astronauts • Can go to the moon • Little space inside • 4 stages • faster A 500

  33. What are 3 advantages of using Cape Canaveral as a launch site? C 500

  34. Eastward launches over water provide a safe place for booster rockets and debris to fall in the ocean. • It is close to the equator so the rocket needs less fuel to reach orbit than one launched near the poles. • Nearby military bases provided good roads. C 500
