Yes the main one which is the orange one and the side booster rockets that are white and there are two of them
The two white Solid Rocket boosters fall back into the sea and are re-used. The main engines are on the shuttle itself which of course is used many times.
It had 9 missions before 1986 when It blew up 73 seconds after launch due to the failure of the o-rings around the booster rocket.
There were nine space shuttle flights in 1987.
The Space Shuttle is not a capsule, it's a spacecraft. They found many pieces of the Challenger space shuttle, including the crew compartment.

whats up
The two white Solid Rocket boosters fall back into the sea and are re-used. The main engines are on the shuttle itself which of course is used many times.
Primarily there are two types of fuels used in most rockets today. The space shuttle, at liftoff, uses both. Solid fuel and liquid fuel. Solid fuel rockets are much like the bottle rockets you can buy in a fireworks store. Once they are lit, the burn all of the fuel available and then burn out. The 2 white rockets on the side of the orange tank holding the space shuttle are Solid Rocket Boosters. The large orange tank that holds the space shuttle is full of liquid full that the shuttle uses as it lifts off into space. That fuel is actually liquid.
It had 9 missions before 1986 when It blew up 73 seconds after launch due to the failure of the o-rings around the booster rocket.
A space shuttle has over 1,000 buttons and swiches.
There were nine space shuttle flights in 1987.
upto 3-5 people are aloud on a space shuttle
Many rockets that go into space do carry humans, but, most rockets do not.
The Space Shuttle is not a capsule, it's a spacecraft. They found many pieces of the Challenger space shuttle, including the crew compartment.
The exact number of space rockets that have experienced catastrophic failures or explosions varies, but historically, there have been over 50 notable incidents since the dawn of spaceflight in the 1950s. This includes both launch failures and in-flight explosions. Some of the most well-known incidents include the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986 and the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster in 2003. Overall, while space travel has become safer over the decades, it remains a complex and high-risk endeavor.
A total of 135 space shuttle flights were launched between 1981 and 2011 as part of NASA's Space Shuttle Program.
