No. The large orange External Tank or ET as it is called is jettisoned at about the 8 minute mark of the flight and burns up in the earths atmosphere during its reentry.
oxygen tanks
Yes the main one which is the orange one and the side booster rockets that are white and there are two of them
One main function is to manuver the shutles gas tanks so the shuttle could stay in space flying. The other function is to add more fenger-5 fuel to make the shuttle's materials work slowly which is important. There is your answer my young student.
A space shuttle typically requires around 1.6 million pounds of fuel, consisting of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen, to take off. The exact amount can vary depending on the specific mission and payload of the shuttle.
Endouver has a max cargo capacity of 55,250 pounds in its 60 by 15 ft cargo bay. This is representative of all US Space Shuttle orbiters. Different orbiters have slightly different capacities, as some are heavier than others. External Tank types can also have an impact; some tanks are lighter than others. Lighter tanks can lift more weight.
they have air tanks in their space suits
oxygen tanks
Contrary to popular belief, the Space Shuttle is the orbiter, external boosters and external tanks combined. The bit that actually goes into space is called the orbiter.
One. That's the big orange thing you see the shuttle strapped to when it's on the launching pad.
It is supplied by tanks, which are filled with liquid hydrogen and oxygen before the shuttle is launched.
as far as i know they burn up on reentry,but it would seem if small booster rockets had been used to get them to orbit after detachment from shuttle then they may have been used to build a cylindrical station by connecting external fuel tanks,considering the number of fuel tanks that went up with shuttle,this would be a large station. does anyone know whynot?

The phases of space shuttle flight are liftoff, orbit insertion, orbit, re-entry, and landing.

Pay load is the total weight of the instruments, passengers, crew, and life-support systems that a space shuttle carries or can carry. The usual payload capacity for the space shuttle is 22,700 kilograms, but it can be raised depending on the choice of launch arrangement. Pay loads get off the earth by being launched in to orbit with either two different booster stages. The space shuttle gets the payload of the earth by using fuel tanks. The payload is attached to the space shuttle and is carried onto it when going into space.
