Firstly, the space shuttle does not not go to the moon. It remains in low-earth orbit. Also, it does not land in the ocean but makes an unpowered landing on a runway. The capsule of Challenger did sink after it fell into the ocean during its launch accident in 1986. The solid rocket boosters that fall from the shuttle during launch do float and are recovered. The Apollo command modules that did travel to the moon during the Apollo moon missions landed in the ocean and did float. Also, frogmen attached a flotation collar when they reached the capsule. The Space Shuttle never goes in the ocean. It lands at Kennedy Space Center in Florida or Edwards Air Force Base in California<br>The Space Shuttle has never been to the Moon.
