Space shuttles took of vertically, attached to an external fuel tank and two solid rocket boosters (SRBs).
A space shuttle takes off by burning fuel at very high temperatures and this provides lift. The rocket needs to carry extra tanks of fuel for it to provide the combustion for a reasonable amount of time until the shuttle gets into orbit.
