The Space Shuttle External Tank carries about 1,449,813 liters of liquid hydrogen fuel and about 541,314 liters of liquid oxygen as its oxidizer. In total, it carries about 1,991,127 liters of liquid propellant for the Space Shuttle Main Engines.
The space shuttle had two solid rocket boosters attached to its external fuel tank to provide additional thrust at liftoff.
The Space Shuttle used approximately 1.6 million pounds (800 tons) of solid rocket fuel during liftoff. This solid rocket fuel was primarily used in the twin solid rocket boosters that provided the initial thrust to launch the shuttle into space.
A space shuttle typically uses around 400,000 gallons of liquid hydrogen and 143,000 gallons of liquid oxygen for fuel during launch.
There were nine space shuttle flights in 1987.
One. That's the big orange thing you see the shuttle strapped to when it's on the launching pad.
No space shuttle has been launched for the moon. It can't carry enough fuel to get there. Couldn't land if it got there.
