While they make great chairs for the elderly, a Geri-Chair is ideal for use in clinical situations where comfort seating is important. This may include areas where dialysis or chemo are being provided, in same-day surgery and OB/GYN clinics or in environments providing post-op, cardiac or outpatient care.
The International Space Station travels in orbit around Earth at a speed of roughly 17,150 miles per hour (that's about 5 miles per second!). This means that the Space Station orbits Earth (and sees a sunrise) once every 92 minutes!
At the Shuttle's maximum speed of about 30,000 km/hr, it would take more than 16 years to reach Pluto.   The New Horizons spacecraft was launched by NASA in 2006 and reac â¦ hed a new record velocity for spacecraft, more than 58,000 km/hr.It was further accelerated by a gravity assist from Jupiter in 2007.he space shuttle gets up to a speed of about 4 miles per second maximum which â¦ is enough to then coast in earth orbit for many days but not enough to get more than a few hundred miles up.
