A space shuttle is a reusable spacecraft designed to transport astronauts and cargo to and from low Earth orbit. It features a winged design, with a main orbiter, external fuel tank, and solid rocket boosters. The shuttle program, primarily conducted by NASA, enabled missions such as satellite deployment, scientific research, and construction of the International Space Station. The program concluded in 2011 after 135 missions, marking a significant era in human spaceflight.
