The external tank is the big orange thing you see on the outside of the shuttle. You know, the one the bat was napping on? As the name inplies the tank holds the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propellants.

  • Na to bych mohl jezdil v Bugatti Veyron celej život s plynem na podlaze. nebo udusit v tom smogu všechny cikány váguse zevli špíny socky a prostě jak to měl v plánu Hitler veškerou nežádoucí rasu

  • @TheAlfonsz No, the external tank is filled with liquid hydrogen and oxygen. The byproduct is simply water vapor. There are no pollutants that result from the space shuttle's main engines. And this has nothing to do with a dead tyrant.

  • Yes, that would be lame. Because in science in America it's all metric now, and it has beeen for quite some time already. And all instruments, like microscopes or telescopes or lab equipment like bottles and tubes and petrie dishes are metric. Obviously, it would kinda stupid if the reast of the world would have to waste time on interpreting american results into 20th/21st century language, hehe:)

  • @winterstellar @frag971 Metric has yet to get humans to the moon though. Imperial measurements did once upon a time. - Jeph

    Should be just as useful as talking in imperial units for most of us.

  • Why not use SI Units?

    KM, Kelvin, KG, Liters and so on?

  • mmmmm. i feel informed :)
