	Shuttle roller coaster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A shuttle roller coaster is any roller coaster which ultimately does not make a complete circuit, but rather reverses at some point throughout its course and traverses the same track backwards.
		Another example of a shuttle roller coaster is the Space Shuttle, located at the Space Station area of Enchanted Kingdom, a theme park in Santa Rosa City, Laguna, Philippines.
		The first two launched shuttle coaster designs debuted in 1977 by competitors Anton Schwarzkopf and Arrow Dynamics.

	Roller coaster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Funderstanding Roller Coaster Help
		A roller coaster is similar to a slide except it is longer and you ride in a train car rather than on the seat of your pants.
		Coaster designers also take advantage of friction to slow the coaster and bring it to a safe stop when breaks are applied at the end of the ride.
		If a roller coaster goes around a bend or a loop, even if its speed is not changing, its velocity is changing because its direction of motion is changing; this change requires the application of a force.

	History and Types of Roller Coasters
		Some coasters move back and forth along the same section of track; these rollercoasters are called shuttles because of this motion and usually run the circuit once with riders moving forwards and then backwards through the same course.
		Steel coasters are known for their smooth ride and often convoluted shapes that often turn riders upside-down via inversions known as loops, corkscrews, pretzels, and other descriptive names.
		Cedar Point was the first park to have coasters break specific height barriers, so as they (their marketing team, perhaps) were the first ones to create and use names for coasters of a particular height, those names became part of general use.

	Roller coaster - Uncyclopedia
		By pure definition, a roller coaster is anything that may seem rebellious or appear dangerous when in fact, it's perfectly safe for family fun as long as you're over the height for 48 inches.
		With roller coasters, however, passengers are also sent through double-backwards corkscrews, 85-degree death drops, underground tunnel plunges, and triple-twistback loop-the-loops, often at speeds of over 100 miles an hour and with G-forces approaching space shuttle launch (or crash) levels.
		Roller coasters are also located in theme parks like Disneyland, Six Flags over Somewhere Really Flat and Boring, Fantazyland, Disneyland 2, Duff Gardens, Vekomaland, and Grue Park.

	Roller Coaster Science
		At the bottom of the first hill (most coasters), the velocity (and kinetic energy) are the greatest, and the gravitational potential energy is spent.
		Essentially, roller coasters are heaters, allowing for the flow of electrical energy into heat, by way of kinetic energy (motion) and the gravitational field.
		Steel coasters tend to be very smooth, while wooden coasters have many sub-accelerations between supports, giving the illusion of being rickety.
