Jet engines need oxygen that is pulled from the air outside the aircraft and into the engine to be mixed with fuel and ignited for propulsion. Rocket engines will either use fuel that already contains oxygen in it (such as hydrazine) or pulls in oxygen that is stored onboard the air/spacecraft separate from the fuel.

What makes space shuttles different from other spacecraft's?

What makes the space shuttles different than other space craft is that they are reusable. Most spacecraft are used one time, then disposed of. The Russian Soyuz and the American Apollo spacecraft are examples of this. Another difference is the way they return to Earth. After other spacecraft reenter Earth's atmosphere, they deploy parachutes and make water landings (US Apollo), or land in snow (Russian Soyuz). The space shuttle lands like an airplane.
