Has a space shuttle taken photos of mars?
Astronauts aboard the Space Shuttle may well take photos of Mars as personal souvenirsif they have time, but the photos would have very little scientific value.The Space Shuttle operates at about 0.0005 percent of the smallest possible distance between Earthand Mars. The Shuttle astronauts don't get appreciably closer to Mars than you do in your kitchen.If additional imaging of Mars is required, it might be acquired by the Hubble Space Telescope, or bythe two rovers currently operating on the surface of Mars.
Temperature of the air in the shuttle orbit?
The temperature in the space shuttle orbit can vary greatly, ranging from extreme heat when exposed to direct sunlight to extreme cold when in the shade. The interior of the shuttle is controlled to be comfortable for the astronauts, typically maintained around 72 degrees Fahrenheit (22 degrees Celsius).
Carries a crew of five to seven and is designed to go only into Earth's orbit?
Oh, dude, you're talking about a space shuttle! It's like this big ol' spaceship that takes a bunch of people into Earth's orbit. It's like a fancy space taxi for astronauts. So yeah, it's got room for a crew of five to seven, and it's all about that Earth orbit life.
The space program has had no fatalities?
False. The Russians have lost several cosmonauts while in orbit, and the USA has had its own fatalities. The Apollo 1 crew members were killed in an on-the-ground test of the space capsule, when a fire started in the pure oxygen atmosphere of the space capsule. The seven astronauts aboard Challenger were killed when one of the solid rocket boosters exploded during a launch, and the seven-member crew of the space shuttle Columbia were killed when the shuttle went out of control and broke up during re-entry. Several astronauts have been killed in more routine aircraft accidents.

Why don't astronauts hit there head on the ceiling of falling shuttle?
Astronauts don't hit their heads on the ceiling of a falling shuttle because they experience microgravity, which creates a sensation of weightlessness. In this state, both the astronauts and the shuttle are in free fall together, moving at the same rate and direction. This means that there is no relative motion between the astronauts and the shuttle interior, preventing them from contacting the ceiling.
