| Space shuttles are space crafts that can be re-used. They take-off
like a rocket, orbit the Earth like a spacecraft and land like a plane.
The USA first designed the shuttle as a cheaper way of getting into space.
The shuttle was designed so it could be re-used, unlike the conventional
"throwaway" rocket.
