Its official program name was Space Transportation System (STS), taken from a 1969 plan for a system of reusable spacecraft of which it was the only item funded for development. The first of four orbital test flights occurred in 1981, leading to operational flights in 1982. In addition to the prototype whose completion was cancelled, five complete Shuttle systems were built and used on a total of 135 missions from 1981 to 2011, launched from the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. Operational missions launched numerous satellites, interplanetary probes, and the Hubble Space Telescope (HST); conducted science experiments in orbit; and participated in construction and servicing of the International Space Station. The Shuttle fleet's total mission time was 1322 days, 19 hours, 21 minutes and 23 seconds.", "maiden_flight": "1981-04-12", "height": 56.1, "diameter": 8.7, "human_rated": true, "crew_capacity": 7, "payload_capacity": 27500, "payload_return_capacity": null, "flight_life": "14 days", "image_url": "https://spacelaunchnow-prod-east.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/space2520shuttle_image_20190207032524.jpeg", "nation_url": null, "wiki_link": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle", "info_link": "" } }, "launch": { "id": "ca242e45-07c7-404d-962b-ba1795d9166a", "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/launch/ca242e45-07c7-404d-962b-ba1795d9166a/?format=api", "slug": "space-shuttle-challenger-ov-099-sts-51-l", "name": "Space Shuttle Challenger / OV-099 | STS-51-L", "status": { "id": 4, "name": "Launch Failure", "abbrev": "Failure", "description": "Either the launch vehicle did not reach orbit, or the payload(s) failed to separate." }, "last_updated": "2023-06-14T08:54:59Z", "net": "1986-01-28T16:38:00Z", "window_end": "1986-01-28T16:38:00Z", "window_start": "1986-01-28T16:38:00Z", "net_precision": null, "probability": -1, "weather_concerns": null, "holdreason": "", "failreason": "During the ascent phase, 73 seconds after liftoff, the vehicle experienced a catastrophic structural failure resulting in the loss of crew and vehicle.
