Unpopular take: the Soviet Shuttle was objectively better engineered than the American one. -Full autopilot (flew perfectly with no crew in 1988) -No dangerous solid boosters mounted on the side -Energia could launch 30 tons WITHOUT the orbiter -Superior hexagonal tiles that didn’t fall off NASA’s Shuttle killed 14...

OTD in 1988, Buran became the first and only orbiter from the Soviet space shuttle program to reach space after it launched from Baikonur for a conservative two-orbit uncrewed test flight on Energia 1L. Here's a supercut of the launch with some awesome archival footage.

Most people will say Tetris included an animation of a Space Shuttle. But. It’s actually the Soviet Buran and the Energia rocket. Remember where this game was made!

#SovietUnion #OTD 37 years ago. The first and last flight of the Soviet Shuttle. The automatic landing of the Buran spacecraft. I remember.

The Shuttle Training Aircraft was a Grumman Gulfstream II modified to simulate a gliding Shuttle orbiter: It still needed to drop gear and reverse thrust to match the terrible L/D of the orbiter on descent.

Today marks 3 years since Taiki Shuttle left us. His greatest win was the Prix Jacques le Marois in France. By chance, that race will be run in 2 hours. This video shows Shuttle and Doto curiously checking out Meto-san. It was filmed just 1 month before Shuttle left us.

Space Shuttle Endeavour mounted atop NASA's modified 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft during her low approach over KLAX on Sept. 21, 2012. The best damn brick that ever flew.

one of the best sacrifices george made for sheldon was driving 15 hours just so he could see a space shuttle launch. it didn’t even happen, but he still found a way to comfort him and make him feel better in the best way he could

And on today´s "Aviation in the movies" feature, the Space Shuttle Hijacking from the movie "007 Moonraker." (As a note, while what we see here is pure fiction, and in real life the shuttle could not fly like this, the Soviet Buran did have in testing, two engines similar to the Su-27 for reentry maneuver, so, in theory, it could do this. On its only space flight, the "flight engines" were not used)

A sight that might cause cognitive dissonance (mental distress/discomfort) in some space fans, here we can see the Soviet Buran space shuttle taking off under its own power on a test flight, powered by ТРД АЛ-31 jet engines. (Source: USSR/Unknown, Buran Test Flight, 1986, 🔈 )

45 years ago... April 14, 1981...spacecraft with no engines glided down and touched down like a giant paper airplane on a dry lakebed in California. Space Shuttle Columbia on STS-1, the very first Shuttle mission, coming in hot over Rogers Dry Lake at Edwards Air Force Base. You see the chase planes, the perfect unpowered approach, wheels kissing Runway 23, and that massive dust cloud as it rolls out. Then the crew... John Young and Robert Crippen... stepping out after 54 hours and 36 orbits in space. This wasn’t just another rocket flight. Columbia proved the Shuttle could launch like a rocket, orbit like a spacecraft, and land like an airplane. Reusable hardware, real test pilots at the controls… it changed everything.The beginning of the Shuttle era in all its glory.

Tried to take my first DC Metro ride ever... On the train in Union Station... Train taken out of service... They send us upstairs to get on the shuttle bus... There are no shuttle busses. Thanks METRO! Hello Uber!

6 December 1988. 23:36:11 UTC/GMT. Landing of Space Shuttle Atlantis after mission STS-27 carrying a classified payload for the U.S. Department of Defence. Insulation from the right SRB detached during launch and damaged 700+ thermal tiles on the shuttle’s right side.

Space Shuttle Endeavour made its final ferry flight atop a modified Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft in 2012. Captured from Lennox, California, this moment marked the end of an era for one of NASA’s most iconic spacecraft.
