The space shuttle fleet has given us new opportunities to develop our activities in space. By itself, the ferry reaches the dimensions of a medium-sized airliner, carrying a crew of around seven, most of all cargo. This model kit is not made by Revell or Monogram. Through the years it has changed very little. NASAs Apollo Era Crawler Transporter (CT) Heavy Paper Model Kit in 1:44 scale by Edu-Craft Diversions. The shuttle with a huge fuel tank can be launched into space thanks to the power of three own engines and two auxiliary rockets. The history of the Crawler Transporter goes back to the Apollo Era. According to this page, the crawler itself weighs 'Approximately 6.6 million pounds', with a maximum load of 18 million pounds, while this sheet lists the Artemis I launch vehicle at 'Approximately 3.5 million pounds' and ML-1 (Mobile Launcher-1) as 'Approximately 11.3 million pounds'.

The result of the project was a combination of a rocket and an aircraft known as a space shuttle. A pair of behemoth machines called crawler-transporters have carried the load of taking rockets and spacecraft to the launch pad for more than 50 years at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Given a 500,000 lb load test, that gives an upper bound to the between 308 PSI and 467 PSI, but. Return the robot crawler to the starting point. Deliver the payload upright on the target launch pad. In 1972, NASA, the American Space Agency began researching a reusable spacecraft. From differing sources, the shoes are either 7.5 feet x 1.5 feet (2.286 meters x 0.4572 meters) or 0.3 meters x 2.3 meters (7.54593 feet x 0.984252 feet), for an area between 1620 in in 2 which is a bit of a range, but workable. Program the robot crawler to transport the payload to a launch pad 91.5 cm (about 3 feet) away. It soon became clear that the successful conquest of space could not continue with the use of such costly technologies. The first rockets designed for space travel, however, could only be used once, which resulted in increasing costs for the expeditions. With man's first steps into space and the moon, the future of Earth has been pushed onto new tracks. The exploration of outer space is one of the greatest achievements of mankind. Crawler-transporter operators need an engineering degree and are trained to repair and troubleshoot everything from hydraulics to electrical and consoles.
