It was built went into space a bunch and got retired. That is all. But there is a conspiracy that the Nasa Space shuttle was built by aliens. Aliens landed on earth in the shuttle and nasa took it repainted it and put on their logo. To this day there is no proof that this has actually happened. The aliens were not with the ship which leads them to believe the aliens are still our here among us.
