No working space shuttle has been replaced yet.
Marc Garneau has been in space three times. He was aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger in 1984, the Space Shuttle Endeavour in 1996, and the Space Shuttle Discovery in 2000.
There have been a total of 135 space shuttle launches. The first space shuttle launch occurred on April 12, 1981, and the final space shuttle mission was launched on July 8, 2011.
Space Shuttle Columbia has 28 missions. It safely launched 28 times, and safely reentered the atmosphere 27 times.
Marc Garneau has been to space three times. He first flew as a Payload Specialist on Space Shuttle Challenger in 1984, then as a Mission Specialist on Space Shuttle Endeavour in 1996, and finally as a Mission Specialist on Space Shuttle Discovery in 2000.
The space shuttle experienced about 3 G's (3 times the force of Earth's gravity) during launch. This force occurred as the shuttle accelerated into space to overcome Earth's gravity.
The space shuttle Discovery has flown the most times of all the space shuttle orbiters.
of course. the space shuttle comlumbia did many times before a disaster occured.
The space shuttle was built to be able to fly 100 times each before being retired. The space shuttle with the most flights is Discovery with 36
Yes. All space shuttle orbiters have been used multiple times. Space Shuttle Discovery has launched on 36 missions as of March 2009 and is scheduled for a total of 39 missions before the program is retired.

Space shuttles were designed for multiple missions, but they required extensive refurbishment between flights. The average number of flights for a single shuttle was around 25-30 missions. Each shuttle was retired after completing its designated mission count.
The maximum speed of the space shuttle is 7,743 m/s.The maximum velocity of a 220 swift is 4,000 ft/s or 1,219 m/sTherefore the Space Shuttle is a little over 6 times faster "than a speeding" bullet.
