What are the forces acting on space shuttle?

The forces acting on a space shuttle during its flight include thrust, drag, gravity, and lift. Thrust is generated by the shuttle's rocket engines, propelling it upward. Gravity acts downward, pulling the shuttle towards Earth, while drag opposes its motion through the atmosphere. Lift, generated by the shuttle's wings, helps counteract gravity during ascent and assists in controlled descent.
