The suborbital foramen is a small opening located below the eye socket in some animals. It allows for the passage of nerves and blood vessels through the skull. It is commonly found in primates and other mammals.

The first U.S. manned suborbital space flight, conducted by Alan Shepard in 1961, lasted approximately 15 minutes. Shepard's Freedom 7 spacecraft reached an altitude of about 116 miles before returning to Earth.

An Orbital space flight simply means that you have accelerated a space craft fast enough so it stays in orbit (cicular path) around the Earth.
A suborbital flight means you have reached the limit of space (anything over 100 km high) but not enough speed to completely circle the Earth.

I'm fairly certain you are referring to the P suborbital. This is a suborbital within an electron orbital level, and contains 6 electrons, 3 pairs. I believe its a bar bell shaped orbital, but I could be wrong.
You also might be referring to the group of elements on the Periodic Table in families III-VIII. They are there because they all have empty P level suborbitals.

The first animal to make a suborbital space flight from American soil was Albert, a rhesus monkey. He flew on a V2 rocket and suffocated on his way. Another monkey named Albert II made a successful journey, but died from impact on its return.
The first Human American that made a sub orbital flight was Alan Shepard in May 5, 1961, who later Commanded Apollo 14. He flew in a Redstone rocket during his sub-orbital flight.

There were several unmanned rocket and missile tests that were "suborbital" as early as 1957, pushing payloads into high altitudes. Later tests lofted monkeys and chimps briefly into space. The first MANNED suborbital flight for the US was the Freedom 7 capsule piloted by US Navy CDR Alan B. Shepard (1923-1998) on May 5, 1961. The Mercury-Redstone 3 rocket did not provide the necessary thrust for Shepard to achieve a complete orbit of the Earth, as the USSR's Yuri Gagarin had done three weeks earlier. CDR Shepard (later RADM) had one other space "first". Commanding the Apollo 14 lunar mission ten years later in 1971, he was the first person to ever hit a golf ball on the moon.

The magnetic quantum number (magnetic spin quantum number), denoted by m_l, can be found by looking at the possible values for l, the azimuthal quantum number. The values for m_l can range from -l to +l, including 0. For example, if l=1 (p orbital), m_l can be -1, 0, or +1.

Yes, there have been pigs in space. In 1959, two Russian pigs named Tsygan and Dezik were the first animals to be launched into space. They were both recovered safely after their suborbital flight.

The first U.S. spaceship in space was Freedom 7, piloted by astronaut Alan Shepard on May 5, 1961. This suborbital flight made Shepard the first American to travel to space.

Suborbital trajectories refer to flight paths that do not complete a full orbit around a celestial body, such as the Earth. Instead, the object follows a ballistic path that enters and exits the atmosphere, reaching space before returning to the surface. These trajectories are often used for space tourism or scientific research missions.

The word sounding comes from the nautical term meaning 'to measure'. Sounding rockets are sent almost straight up into the sky, usually with an experiment on board, to perform "cheap" experiments in space. Since they don't turn downward to the horizon while launching, they don't go into orbit. That means that they come back in just a few minutes and can be recovered with a parachute if desired. Most sounding rockets are roughly two feet in diameter and generally about 40 feet long, thus pretty small.
Sounding rockets are always suborbital.

It was in space 20 days
Space is defined as that area above the Kármán line, at 100 kilometers (62 miles) altitude. The first rocket to reach this altitude in suborbital mode was a V-2 (German WWII military weapon) in June 1944. Since the flight was suborbital, its time in space was seconds to a few minutes.
The first orbital vehicle was Sputnik 1 (Russian), launched 4-Oct-1957. It transmitted a simple radio signal for 22 days and orbited for three months before burning on reentry 4-Jan-1958

The first manmade object in space were the German V-2 rockets in World War II, they flew a suborbital path and some may have reached the 100 km height that NASA defines as the altitude where space begins.

It is an orbital shape for electrons. It is further split into Px, Py and Pz. Each suborbital can hold 2 electrons, so P can hold 6 total. The shape of each is a dinbell or an infinity/8 sign, on the axis in question

Alan Shepard was the first American astronaut to travel to space in 1961 aboard the Freedom 7 spacecraft. He was part of the Mercury program and completed a suborbital flight. The term "cosmonaut" specifically refers to Russian or Soviet astronauts.

Astronauts do not become an astronaut until they complete their training and perform a successful spaceflight higher than 100 kilometers. Using that criteria, the first astronaut was Alan B. Shepard, who flew Freedom 7 on a suborbital flight on May 5, 1961.

Russia calls its astronauts, cosmonauts. Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin was the first cosmonaut in space on April 12, 1961. Gagarin was able to do a full Earth orbit.
This was before America's first astronaut in space, Alan Shepard on May 5, 1961 which was only a suborbital flight.

No, but he was the first US astronaut (and third person overall) to orbit the Earth, on February 20, 1962. The first two Mercury flights were suborbital (more-or-less straight up and back down), flown by astronauts Alan Shepard (May, 1961) and Gus Grissom (July, 1961).

The second American in space was Virgil Grissom, on the 21st of July, 1961. This was the second American 'suborbital' flight, where true space was entered, but the pilot did not make a full orbit of the planet.

Booster rockets on the underside of the helicopter. It can't be accomplished.
Helicopter like craft use downwash from the blades to push down hard against the atmosphere below the blades and pull down hard from the atmosphere above. Since the molecules making up the atmosphere at or around ground level (up to ~37,000 feet) can't move out of the way fast enough through the rotors, you experience lift. This is how the craft experiences flight. If the atmosphere is too thin, you no longer have the problem of the molecules moving out of the way through the rotors, hence no lift and no flight.
Suborbital height is actually in space. There is no atmosphere, or the amount is negligible. The chopper just has nothing to push or pull against.

An orbit around another orbit is called a "satellite orbit" or a "suborbital path". This occurs when a smaller object orbits around a larger object, which is itself in orbit around another celestial body.

Rocket speed is typically measured in units such as meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h) when discussing suborbital or orbital flights. For interplanetary or interstellar missions, speeds are commonly measured in kilometers per second (km/s) or even a fraction of the speed of light (c).

No, the first spacecraft to reach outer space was the V-2 rocket launched by Germany in 1944. NASA was established in 1958, and its first successful manned spaceflight was in 1961 with astronaut Alan Shepard's suborbital flight aboard Freedom 7.

Mount Everest the worlds highest mountain is closer to outer space than anything else on earth. Mount Everest is 8,848 metres high. The shortest distance between Earth and space is about 62 miles (100 kilometers) straight up, which by general accord is where the planet's boundary ends and suborbital space begins.

That's group 13, otherwise known as group 3A. It includes the very common element aluminum, along with the somewhat less common elements boron, gallium, indium, and thallium. These elements all have 3 electrons in their outer, or valence shell. Two of those electrons are in the s suborbital, and one is in the p suborbital.
