Space shuttle. Cutaway illustration of a space shuttle with crew. The front of the shuttle con- tains the crew compartment,split into the flight deck (top),where the flight controls are found,and the living quarters (bottom). Behind this is the payload bay,which contains the cargo. This shuttle is carrying a scientific laboratory,which is joined to the crew compartment by a short tube. Behind the laboratory is space for other equipment such as telescopes or satellite components. The open payload bay doors are covered with radiators that radiate heat into space,helping to prevent the shuttle from over-heating | |
