Do space shuttle launches cause a greater depletion of the ozone layer?

To be honest, I believe more research is required on the subject. When one realizes that any space vehicle uses up tons of fuel to reach even low orbit, and the mitigating circumstances of weather and other environmental conditions are major factors, it's certain that there will be cumulative after-effects.





I also believe that such a study might spur research into other methods of reaching orbit, such as space elevators and alternate propulsion methods, such as scramjet turbines and the like. These issues will have to be addressed at some point; it's best to begin intensive research as soon as possible. Virgin Galactic, as well as other aerospace concerns, have already started, but more effort will be required as Homo Sapiens begins to leave its ancestral homeworld.Do space shuttle launches cause a greater depletion of the ozone layer?
no. in fact many people don't know this but lighting actually creates ozone. plus ozone isn't flammable.Do space shuttle launches cause a greater depletion of the ozone layer?
No I don't think so...., but it seems after the shuttle has left we have alittle bad weather, as well as it returns after we have bad weather.
Why should they. The shuttle only burns hydrogen and aluminum.
Naw, but it does poke little holes in it! lmao
The major factor in the depletion of the ozone layer was the rampant use of CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) in aerosol cans. As long as the Space Shuttle is taking off without releasing any of these chemicals, and I'm pretty sure they don't, then the two would be unrelated.
