Difference between Atmospheric entry and Space Shuttle Columbia

Atmospheric entry vs. Space Shuttle Columbia

Atmospheric entry is the movement of an object from outer space into and through the gases of an atmosphere of a planet, dwarf planet or natural satellite. Space Shuttle Columbia (Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-102) was the first space-rated orbiter in NASA's Space Shuttle fleet.
