The space shuttle is retired and no longer flies.
All 135 Space Shuttle missions were launched out of Kennedy Space Center in Florida .
Shuttle launches from the Vandenberg Air Force Base in California ended up being cancelled and as a result, all 135 of the 135 missions were from Florida .
The orbiter vehicle takes so much fuel to get into space that we need a really big gas tank.
At the OPF , the fixed service structure has a lightning mast on top and then three service arms.
Two of them are vent arms, which will collect excess hydrogen and oxygen from the external tank.
The third arm is called the orbiter access arm.
At T -, 6.6 seconds the three main engines ignite.
Two SRBS fall back down to the earth where they were parachute in for a soft landing in the ocean.
The SRBS will be recovered by boat and then refurbished for a future shuttle mission.
