A space shuttle can reach speeds of up to 17,500 miles per hour (28,164 kilometers per hour) when in orbit around the Earth. This velocity allows the shuttle to overcome the gravitational pull of the Earth and remain in a stable orbit around the planet.
The first space shuttle developed by NASA was the Space Shuttle Enterprise, which never flew in space and was used for atmospheric flight tests. The first space shuttle to reach space was the Space Shuttle Columbia, which launched on April 12, 1981.
The American space shuttle that goes into orbit is named the Space Shuttle. The fleet of space shuttles included vehicles such as Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour.
The space shuttle that was involved in the Challenger disaster was called the Space Shuttle Challenger.
