In the space shuttle, which fuel goes in the tank above the intertank in the E.T.?

The liquid oxygen goes in the smaller, top tank inside the external tank.  To provide better stability in rockets, one should always put the densest (and heaviest) fuel at the top.\n\nThe propellant mixture in each SRB motor consists of an ammonium perchlorate (oxidizer, 69.6 % by weight), aluminum (fuel, 16 %), iron oxide (a catalyst, 0.4 %), a polymer (such as PBAN or HTPB - a binder that holds the mixture together, 12.04 %), and an epoxy curing agent (1.96 %).

Reentry burn is when engines are fired to slow a spacecraft to allow it to begin dropping towards the planet it will land on. Spacecraft stay in orbit due to a balance of forces; the forward speed and falling speed keep the craft above the planet (what's known as "orbital velocity"; different for each planet due to gravity of each planet). However, if the craft is slowed down, it will begin to fall towards the planet. On older capsules, there used to be "retro-rockets" for this purpose in a small package on the heat shield, but most ships in use today (Russian Soyuz, American Shuttle) use a main engine or maneuvering engine to slow the ship down. When landing on Earth, the ship must then "reenter" the atmosphere, which provides further braking action, and then deploy parachutes or use flying maneuvers to slow down to landing speed.

Rockets carry two components -- fuel to burn and their own oxidizer to enable that in the near-vacuum of space.  In the case of liquid fuels, the two components must be stored separately.  Some solid rocket propellants have the fuel and oxidizer mixed together.

Under high pressure, the helium is liquified.  The tank is then attached to the pressurized tank and helium simply pours into the tank via gravity.  When the tank is opened, atmospheric pressure converts it back to gas.

The power comparison is about 8,000 hp(top fuel) to about 60,000hp(boeing) The fuel consumption comparison is apples to oranges. The boeing uses heavy jet propellant basically diesel fuel while the top fuel uses alchohol and nitro methane. it would be like comparing drinking water versus eggnog... What's the point?

It's really not a matter of distance from the sun, it is a matter of space being a vacuum.  The other issue is that "air" is not normally present or contained in a spacecraft.  Most spacecraft storing gasses contain hydrazine for propulsion.  If you are talking about a manned spacecraft such as the ISS then you would be talking about liquid oxygen.  If the oxygen tank ruptured pressure would go to zero, the liquid would instantly boil and the resultant gas would dissipate.

in the shuttle? absorbed and filtered. Their is still humidity but under control.\n\nIn the outer space there isn't any  just on rocks(asteroid)

Odorless Kerosene (Klean-Heat, Deobase, odorless mineral spirits)\n\n I quote: "This is kerosene that has been "sweetened" with most of its mercaptans (sulfur compound) and aromatics removed.  It supposedly burns cleaner, odorless, with less smoke and soot.  It may also have a narrower molecule range (C9-C12), higher flashpoint than K-1 (125°F or greater  vs. ~100°F) and a much higher price."\n\nYou can buy it here: http://www.msiwix.com/Klean-Heat.htm\n\nYou might try filtering plain kerosene with activated charcoal, which will absorb some of the sulfur impurities. You might also look for a grade of kerosene called 1-k kerosene aka k-1. It is a higher grade.

nitrogen, probably helium and hydrogen too.

I assume this question involves using common sugar (sucrose) are the fuel.\n\nThe answer would depend on how you are extracting the energy out of the sugar as well as just how large of a mass (rocket + ...) you want to move to the moon.\nYour question is far too vague (and meaningless) without A LOT more details.

I'm not sure they mix and if they don't I don't know which one floats on the other.\nGet a jar and pour in one then the other. Hope there is a colour difference. If they do not separate then your idea should work.\nIf they do separate it depends on which fuel will be at the level of the fuel pick up in the tank.

It's liquid hydrogen and oxygen.  I imagine they just make it in a factory by cooling down those gases to very low temperatures.
