Difference between Lifting body and Orbital spaceflight

Lifting body vs. Orbital spaceflight

A lifting body is a fixed-wing aircraft or spacecraft configuration in which the body itself produces lift. An orbital spaceflight (or orbital flight) is a spaceflight in which a spacecraft is placed on a trajectory where it could remain in space for at least one orbit.

Similarities between Lifting body and Orbital spaceflight

Lifting body and Orbital spaceflight have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Apollo program, Atmospheric entry, Hypersonic speed, Low Earth orbit, Project Gemini, Project Mercury, Rocket engine, Space Shuttle, Spacecraft, Sub-orbital spaceflight.

Apollo program

The Apollo program, also known as Project Apollo, was the third United States human spaceflight program carried out by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which accomplished landing the first humans on the Moon from 1969 to 1972.

Atmospheric entry

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.

Sub-orbital spaceflight

A sub-orbital spaceflight is a spaceflight in which the spacecraft reaches space, but its trajectory intersects the atmosphere or surface of the gravitating body from which it was launched, so that it will not complete one orbital revolution.
