There is no air in space and because of that, the noise it makes can not transmit elsewhere.
The sound it makes is well noticeable inside the craft though. Sound moves through the materials the shuttle is built from and then it starts transmitting these sounds into the air on board, and this noise is very well audible.
I am sorry to say, but I can not explain the sound it actually makes.
maybe there is something on NASA homepage regarding this.
a space shuttle feels really ruff
The Space Shuttle looks much like a passenger airplane, but it is more like a glider. Visit related links below for picture of the Space Shuttle
A Space Station monitors the Space Shuttle being launched into space and so forth. And a Space Shuttle, is like a rocket they send into space. So the difference is a space shuttle is a rocket, and a space station is a building.
they are both in space
The space shuttle has to start straight up, like a rocket.
Technically, as an astronaut is weightless in space, so should a space shuttle!

the person that wants to launch a space shuttle, a space company like NASA or the government
The space shuttle is big just like the Orion. And they both get send off into space

Sound requires a medium to be transported from one point to another. On earth, that is normally the air. In space, which is a vacuum, no sound is heard, as there is no medium to transport it.
there isn't going to be a next space shuttle- the shuttle program is set to end in the middle of 2010
The Space Shuttle lands like a plane. When it gets to earth, there is a runway and it will land smoothly on the ground.
The shuttle is launched like a spacecraft, flies in space , earth orbit, but it lands like a plane on the runway, it is usable spacecraft.
