with thrust
The air in the space shuttle is pressurized, the whole thing has air in it to breathe.
You can find Space Shuttle Enterprise at the Intrepid Sea Air and Space museum in New York Coty, Space Shuttle Discovery at the Smithsonian Air and Space museum in Virginia, Space Shuttle Altantis at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida, and Space Shuttle Endeavour at the California Science Center in Los Angeles, California.
they have air tanks in their space suits
Space Shuttle Enterprise is at the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum in New York, Space Shuttle Discovery is at the Smithsonian in Virginia, Space Shuttle Atlantis is at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida, and Space Shuttle Endevour is at the California Science Center in Los Angeles.
It exploded in the air due to a hole in the shuttle. Scientists later found that they were travelling in space with a hole in it.
The space shuttle's main engines are used to propel it into orbit and make course corrections in space. Once in orbit, thrusters are used to adjust its position and orientation. Additionally, the shuttle can rely on gravity assists and other celestial phenomena to maneuver in space.
a Space Shuttle and a air suit
A space shuttle still has to leave the atmosphere, we aren't building them in space. While leaving the atmosphere a space shuttle causes a lot of friction as it rubs against the air on the way up.
Space Shuttle Enterprise is on the flight deck of the Intrepid in New York, the remains Space Shuttle Columbia (Broke apart in 2003) are on the 16th floor of the Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center, the remains of Space Shuttle Challenger (Broke apart in 1986) is in an abandoned missile at Launch Complex 46 at Patricks Air Force Base, Space Shuttle Discovery is at the National Air and Space Museum in Virginia, Space Shuttle Atlantis will soon be at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, and Space Shuttle Endeavour will soon be at the California Science Center in Los Angeles, California.
The 36 year old Space Shuttle Enterprise is housed at the Interprid Sea Air and Space Museum in New York City, the 29 year old Space Shuttle Discovery is at the Smithsonian Air and Space museum in Virginia, the 27 year old Space Shuttle Atlantis is at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida, and the 21 year old Space Shuttle Endeavour is at the California Science Center in California.
Becasue there's no air and therefore no friction
They float around in Space
