Since just before liftoff the speed is zero, the speed 'at liftoff' is just a tiny bit faster than zero. The speed gets faster and faster as time passes and the rocket moves up.
The Space Shuttle goes from zero to 17,000 mph in 8.5 minutes. The speed of the gases exiting the Solid Rocket Booster motor is 6,000 mph -- three times the speed of a high-powered rifle.
Enterprise was the only Space Shuttle that was never meant for space.
Helium is used as a pressurizing agent in the fuel and oxidizer tanks of space shuttles. By regulating pressure during fuel consumption, helium ensures a steady flow of propellants to the engines, which is crucial for achieving the necessary thrust to lift the shuttle off the ground and into space.

There have been two space shuttles that exploded during launch: Challenger in 1986 and Columbia in 2003.

blast off
The Columbia supercomputer helped NASA guide the space shuttle. This supercomputer was named after the Columbia crew lost in an explosion in 2003 at lift off.
Space shuttles are pressurized so that the oxygen stays inside the shuttle.

lift and thrust
All 5 Space Shuttles launch from Kennedy Space Center on the east coast of Florida, USA.
To lift the 4.5 million pound shuttle from the pad to orbit (115 to 400 miles) above the Earth, the shuttle uses two solid rocket boosters, three main engines of the orbiter, the external fuel tank and the orbital maneuvering system on the orbiter. The solid rockets provide most of the main force or thrust needed to lift the space shuttle off the launch pad.
nasa: never a straight answer, is building other Leo stations for other black projects we may find out about in the next fifty years maybe.
