Frequently asked
How did the Space Shuttle launch and land?
The Space Shuttle launched vertically like a rocket with two solid boosters and an external fuel tank, then orbited Earth in space. To land, it fired engines to slow down, re-entered the atmosphere, and glided to a runway like an airplane. This made it the first reusable spacecraft design.
What was the Space Shuttle's main mission?
The Space Shuttle carried astronauts and cargo to low Earth orbit, typically to the International Space Station. It deployed satellites, conducted scientific experiments, and performed repair missions like servicing the Hubble Space Telescope. No spacecraft before had such diverse capabilities.
How many people could fly on the Space Shuttle?
A typical Space Shuttle crew included seven astronauts: two pilots and five mission specialists or payload specialists. The cargo bay could hold up to 65,000 pounds of equipment and supplies. Five Space Shuttles flew operational missions during the program's 30-year history.
