I am not too sure but I did read that they were 37 feet long which surprised me but I didnt understand they went all the way around the Solid Rocket Boosters at the joint
The Challenger space shuttle exploded on January 28, 1986.
The teacher who was killed in the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986 was Christa McAuliffe. She was selected to be the first teacher in space as part of NASA's Teacher in Space Project.
The Space Shuttle orbiter, with a length of 122.17 feet and a wingspan of 78.06 feet, was the largest space shuttle. The Space Shuttle program operated a total of five orbiters: Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour.
No, NASA only had one operational space shuttle program, which consisted of five space shuttle orbiters: Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour. Each orbiter was reusable and played a crucial role in NASA's space missions from 1981 to 2011.
they would travel in a space shuttle

Any! but i would seggest a space shuttle Any! but i would seggest a space shuttle
Colonel Eileen Collins, USAF, retired, became the first female Space Shuttle pilot on STS-63, aboard Discovery; and the first female Space Shuttle commander on STS-93, aboard Columbia; She also commanded Discovery on STS-114, the first mission after the Columbia disaster. As far as the first woman to fly ABOARD the Space Shuttle, that would be Sally Ride, the first American woman to go into space, aboard the Challenger, on STS-7.
I am pretty sure that a space shuttle is found in the thermosphere or mesosphere.

yes. How else would the space shuttle stay in orbit?
In space, they don't. If they are in a space shuttle, however, they would move themselves using handlebars attached to the shuttle designed specifically for propelling themselves.
It could not, the shuttle cannot leave low earth orbit
It is unlikely that anyone would find your body.A major recovery effort would be launched immediately as happened during the Challenger and Columbia disasters. The military are called in to search, and every effort would be made to find all the possible remains, the human ones as well as the shuttle components. The cockpit of the Challenger was mostly intact when recovered from the ocean. As much of the shuttle as possible is reconstructed in a huge hangar at Kennedy Space Center. Major investigations take place which are usually highly critical of NASA operations. The shuttle fleet is grounded until all the recommendations from the investigation are implemented.
