as powerful as your but
by two powerful engines
They are not, they have the same computer system since the early 80's. Your computer is more powerful than the space shuttles'.
Same: solid rocket boosters and liquid hydrogen/oxygen main engines.
Yes it's called gimbling.
Airplanes utilize either internal combustion engines, which mix air and gasoline for their power, or, they have jet engines that cram air into the engines, and spray kerosene into the air flow. Space shuttles have rocket engines. The take their air with them. Well, oxygen, actually.
The space shuttle main engines (SSME) RS 24 engines use rocketdyne liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen fuel in the engine that is designed in such a way that the engines are reusable.
NASA space shuttles
Space Shuttles do not land in Houston
Space shuttles use energy, not make it
Space shuttles are plane like vehicles that travel in space, i hope that answered your question
The space shuttles were launched by liquid fuel engines along with solid fuel boosters to get them into orbit. That also provided the initial speed of over 17,000 mph that keeps them orbit without any additional use of the engines. Once in orbit they used orbital maneuvering engines to change their orientation as well provide the slow down required to bring them back to Earth.
It is not expected that the Space Shuttles will fly again.
