The space shuttle is a reusable spacecraft that can launch like a rocket but can also land like an airplane. Rockets are typically one-time use vehicles that are not designed to return to Earth intact. Additionally, the space shuttle can carry astronauts and cargo to space, whereas rockets are mainly used for payload delivery.
On average, there are around 100-120 rocket launches each year worldwide. These rockets carry various payloads into space including satellites, crewed missions, and cargo resupply missions to the International Space Station.
Rockets offer high speed and efficiency for reaching outer space due to their ability to operate in a vacuum. They provide a reliable method of transport for satellites, astronauts, and cargo. Additionally, rockets can be launched from various locations and can carry payloads swiftly and accurately to their destinations.
Human cargo is another term for passengers.
Cargo is the common term.

Fuel is typically stored in rockets either as liquid fuel in fuel tanks or as solid fuel in a casing. Liquid fuel rockets have separate tanks for liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen or kerosene, while solid fuel rockets have a solid propellant mixture in a casing. Both types of fuel storage systems are designed to be safe, efficient, and controlled during flight.
