According to NASA, Endeavor, Atlantis, and Discovery are the shuttles currently still in service. Challenger and Columbia both disintegrated in flight. Columbia disintegrated upon reentry on Feb 1 2003 and Challenger disintegrated shortly upon lift off on Feb. 28, 1986. The Enterprise is another shuttle that NASA has, but in was never built for the purpose of space travel. But instead was used early on in the space program to improve landings and space flight in general before the actual mission itself got underway.
No.
There are currently no space shuttles in operation. The Space Shuttle program was retired in 2011 after the final mission of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. Some shuttles, such as Discovery and Endeavour, are on display at museums, while others, like Enterprise, were used for testing and were not space-faring shuttles.
There is a total of five space shuttles that belonged to NASA. These shuttles are Discovery, Atlantis, Endeavour, Columbia, and Challenger. However, they have all been retired from service.

Space shuttles use energy, not make it
Space shuttles are sent to outer space for several reasons, including scientific research, satellite deployment, and space exploration missions. They allow astronauts to conduct experiments in microgravity, service and repair satellites, and travel to the International Space Station. Additionally, space shuttles are used to advance our understanding of space and help pave the way for future space exploration.
It is not expected that the Space Shuttles will fly again.
Stations are built in space; Shuttles use rocket boosters.
