NASA developed the Space Shuttle as the United States "Space Transportation System" (STS). The first unpowered Shuttle landing was by the "Enterprise" on August 12, 1977, and the first space mission by the shuttle Columbia on April 12-14, 1981.
The space shuttle's structure is primarily made of aluminum alloy and titanium. The thermal protection system, which shields the shuttle from the intense heat of re-entry, is composed of materials such as reinforced carbon-carbon and silica tiles. Additionally, the shuttle's windows are made of multiple layers of materials including polycarbonate and glass.
