What are the 3 phases of a space shuttle flight?
The three phases of a space shuttle flight are launch, on-orbit operations, and re-entry and landing. Launch involves liftoff from Earth, on-orbit operations refer to activities while the shuttle is in space, and re-entry and landing entail the shuttle returning to Earth and landing safely.

When will the last space shuttle launch as of 2011?
The last space shuttle launch was originally planned for early 2011, but it was delayed to July 8, 2011. The Space Shuttle Atlantis (STS-135) was the final shuttle mission of NASA's Space Shuttle program before the fleet was retired.

If it were possible to have a fully fueled space shuttle with its boosters and external tank in Earth orbit how fast could it go if it launched?
the space shuttle always, no matter what, has a maximum speed of 18,000 mph. the shuttle takes 17,500 mph to reach orbit. because of more fuel, it wouldn't go faster, it would just last longer.

Which famous space telescope circles the earth every 90 minutes?
There are several space telescopes now in orbit, but the Hubble Space Telescope is the only one in a 90-minute orbit. This low orbit was selected so that it would remain reachable by the Space Shuttle. The original plan, when Hubble was launched, was that one of the later Shuttle missions would pick up the Hubble at the end of its service life and return it to Earth, possibly to be placed in the Smithsonian museum. Unfortunately, the Shuttle program is ending early, and with the last maintenance mission, the Hubble can remain in service for several more years. So there will be no way to retrieve Hubble and return it to Earth. It will probably be de-orbited and crashed into the ocean by about 2018. Fortunately, other more powerful space telescopes are being prepared for launch now, and some, like the Spitzer Space Telescope, are already in space.
