Is there a space after Mr and before the first name?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In English Grammar, there should be a full stop/period after 'Mr'. because 'Mr' is shortened form of 'Mister'. After the full stop.period then a space then a capital letter to start the name.

e.g. Mister Joseph Smith , in shortened form it is 'Mr. J. Smith.'. Note the stops and the spaces.

NB For any word in the English language that is shortened, then the shortened form has a full stop/period after it.

e.g.

Mrs. (Missis)

Dr. (Doctor)

Capt. (Captain)

No. (Number). #

& e.g. 'Exempli Gratia'.

Did Chuck Yeager go into outer space?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

General Chuck Yeager has flown to space in the F-104 in the early 1960's - 118,000 feet. However due to the deal between the US and Russia, for national security for sovereign nations, space arbitrarily defined as 50 miles from the earth and each nation owned the airspace above it up to 50 miles.

General Chuck Yeager is still considered the most famous test pilot in the world. Some very crucial safety procedures we have in place today were created by General Chuck Yeager.

Is gravity used in space travel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you mean do any manned spacecraft use artificial gravity, the answer is, not so far. But, in the future, large spacecraft may create artificial gravity by rotating them.

To conserve fuel, the gravity of the moon/planets is used to pull spacecraft toward them. And of course the gravity of earth is used to hold/pull on spacecraft so they orbit (circle) around it instead of flying off into space.

Why is a space suit important?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Because in space humans would quickly dehydrate and be unable to breath, because 'space' is a near vacuum. Vacuums don't like to be empty, and want to fill up. So they take anything from anywhere to fill the vacuum, and that included human breath and moisture.

Without breath and moisture we would die instantaneously.

Hence the Space Suit, which is impervious to the loss of moisture and air.
