stern-post rudders
Rudders in china were made of wood. The Chinese were one of the first to attach the rudder to the stem.
No. The Titanic was over 900 feet. The shuttle is pretty small compared to that. It's the size of a small commercial airliner.

Sailing ships must have rudders. Columbus's ships were no exception. There is a nice picture of a nao at the link. The Santa Maria, The flagship for his voyage when he discovered the new world, was this type ship. The Niña and Pinta were caravels. They also had rudders.
Airships have engines pushing them through the air and big rudders at the rear. When the rudders are put at an angle WRT the airstream, the ship will turn. For up/down they can either vent/fill some of the lifting gas, or - to some degree - use rudders for that too.
Small
Small inexpensive pistol
