Space Shuttle, officially called the Space Transportation System (STS), is a spacecraft which is a vehicle or device designed for spaceflight
in other words Satellite is moving by gravitation while space shuttle by engine.

∙ 16y agoA space shuttle is a reusable spacecraft designed to transport astronauts and cargo to and from space, while a satellite is an object that orbits a planet or celestial body for communication, weather monitoring, navigation, or scientific research purposes. Space shuttles are piloted, while satellites operate autonomously.
A space satellite is an object launched into orbit around Earth or another celestial body for various purposes such as communication, weather monitoring, or scientific research. A space shuttle, on the other hand, is a type of spacecraft used for carrying astronauts and cargo to and from space, typically for missions to and from a space station or to deploy satellites. The space shuttle is reusable, while satellites are typically not designed to return to Earth.
No. It is a satellite.
The space shuttle uses its payload bay to carry and deploy satellites into space. Once the shuttle reaches the desired orbit, the robotic arm or astronauts inside the shuttle release the satellite into space.
Generally, a satellite orbits the Earth, while a space probe is sent to gather information beyond Earth orbit. However, probe can orbit the Earth (and therefore technically be a satellite) or go into orbit around another body (the Moon, Mars, etc.) and therefore also technically become a satellite of that body.
The mission of the space shuttle Challenger was to deploy a satellite called the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS). This satellite was designed to improve communication between ground stations and other orbiting spacecraft.

A space shuttle has never hit a satellite.
A space shuttle is a reusable spacecraft designed for human spaceflight, carrying astronauts to and from space. A space probe is an unmanned spacecraft designed to explore other planets, moons, or asteroids without carrying humans. Spacecraft is a general term that encompasses both manned (space shuttles) and unmanned (space probes) vehicles designed for space exploration.
A space station is a large spacecraft designed to remain in space for long periods of time and serve as an orbiting habitat for astronauts. In contrast, the space shuttle was a reusable spacecraft that could launch from Earth, carry astronauts and cargo to space, and then return to Earth. The space shuttle was retired in 2011, while space stations like the International Space Station continue to be used for long-term missions.
No. It is a satellite.
No. A space shuttle is intentionally place in space by humans, usually for research reasons.

The space shuttle is a spacecraft that can carry astronauts and cargo to space. It is not a space probe, which is an unmanned spacecraft that is sent to explore space, nor is it a satellite, which is an object that orbits a planet or celestial body.
A space shuttle is neither a space probe nor a space satellite. Space shuttles are reusable spacecraft designed for carrying astronauts and cargo to and from space, while space probes are unmanned spacecraft used for exploring space beyond Earth's orbit and space satellites are objects that orbit a planet or celestial body for various purposes.
The space shuttle Discovery was an artificial satellite, as it was a spacecraft designed and launched by humans to orbit Earth and carry out specific missions, rather than occurring naturally in space.
latest space satellite from India
It had a cargo bay.
