The orbiter's main engines are fueled by liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. The 2 solid rocket boosters which provide additional lift during the first 2 minutes of flight are powered by solid propellent consisting of ammonium percholate, iron oxide, and aluminum. Electrical power is provided by fuel cells.
The cost of a space shuttle program varies. For example, the Space Shuttle program run by NASA cost approximately $450 million per mission. However, the overall cost of developing and operating a space shuttle throughout its lifetime is in the range of $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion per shuttle.
The name of the first space shuttle that was run through free flight simulation was Enterprise, but the first space shuttle to actually reach orbit was Columbia in 1981.
The first space shuttle developed by NASA was the Space Shuttle Enterprise, which never flew in space and was used for atmospheric flight tests. The first space shuttle to reach space was the Space Shuttle Columbia, which launched on April 12, 1981.
