About the Space Shuttle Orbiter "Discovery:" The Space Shuttle Orbiter is the orbital vehicle of the Space Shuttle. It is a reusable winged "spaceplane", a mixture of rocket, spacecraft, and airplane. The orbiter launches crew and payload into Earth orbit, performing on-orbit operations, then re-enters the atmosphere and lands like a glider to return the crew and any payload on board. The orbiter carries most of the main propulsion system for reusable purpose, but the propellant for the three main engines is fed by an External Tank, and two solid rocket boosters help to propel it during the first two minutes of ascent. The Orbiter is the main component of the space shuttle. The Shuttle Orbiter is the aircraft that carries the astronauts and up to 50,000 lb (22 700 kg) of payload into low earth orbit. When its mission is complete, the Shuttle can independently move itself out of orbit and re-enter the Earth's atmosphere. During descent and landing, the Shuttle Orbiter acts as a glider and makes a completely unpowered landing.
