THe American's built the space shuttle to have a reusable rocket that could go out into space and come back to earth.
James Kay did not invent the first space shuttle. The first space shuttle, known as the Space Shuttle Enterprise, was developed by NASA and made its first test flight in 1977. The concept of a reusable space shuttle was proposed in the 1960s as a way to make space travel more cost-effective.
Kalpana Chawla was the second Indian woman to travel to space with Americans, as a mission specialist aboard the Space Shuttle Columbia in 1997. She later tragically lost her life in the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster in 2003.
The first space shuttle developed by NASA was the Space Shuttle Enterprise, which never flew in space and was used for atmospheric flight tests. The first space shuttle to reach space was the Space Shuttle Columbia, which launched on April 12, 1981.
There were 5. Space Shuttle Columbia (destroyed in 2003), Space Shuttle Challenger (destroyed in 1886), Space Shuttle Discovery, Space Shuttle Atlantis, and Space Shuttle Endeavour.
The name of the space shuttle was Challenger.

I don't know but the space shuttle idea started in the late 60s.

Space Shuttle Endeavour was the final Space Shuttle built. It was built to replace Space Shuttle Challenger.

The space shuttle went into space and studied outer space.
Of the first Space Shuttle; Enterprise. Of the first space worthy Space Shuttle; Columbia.
The first functional shuttle ever to be produced was the Columbia in the year 1981. This shuttle was designed and invented by NASA and not by any single person. Plans to invent the Space Shuttle began even before the Apollo Lunar Missions in the year 1969.The main concerns at that point were logistics; how much the shuttle would cost and how it was to be built. Hope this helps.
