A Space Shuttle typically weighed around 165,000 pounds (75,000 kilograms) at launch, including its payload. The orbiter itself was about 122 feet (37 meters) long. When combined with the solid rocket boosters and external tank, the total launch weight could exceed 4.5 million pounds (2 million kilograms).
