SPACE SHUTTLE     -     Vehicle use: Satellite, USOS Element Delivery

American winged orbital launch vehicle. The launch configuration consisted of the orbiter (housing the crew), a large external tank (storing fuel for the main engines), and two solid rocket boosters (SRBs) which provided most of the shuttle's lift during the first two minutes of flight. The space shuttle was the world's first reusable spacecraft (orbiter and SRBs were reused) and the first spacecraft in history that could carry large satellites both to and from orbit.
