You've seen the outside many times - now come tour the inside of the Space Shuttle in 3D! Go to https://brilliant.org/JaredOwen to sign up for free. The Space Shuttle is made of up of the Orbiter Vehicle, the External Tank, and 2 Solid Rocket Boosters. Missions were launched from Kennedy Space Center in Florida. There were five orbiters built to travel to space: Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavor. Parts of the space shuttle include Fuselage, Wings, Thermal Protection System, Reaction Control System, and Space Shuttle Main Engines (SSME). The Crew Compartment consists of the Flight Deck, Mid Deck, and the Equipment Bay. Most missions had 7 astronauts on board. When they do an EVA or "Space Walk" they can enter the Air Lock to go out into the Payload Bay. The Remote Manipulator System (RMS), also known as the Canadarm, is used used to move payloads around in space. 🚀Watch more space animations:    • How did the Space Shuttle launch work?      • How does the Crew Dragon Spacecraft w...      • Jared's Space Animations   Support these videos:   / jaredowenanimations   👨‍🚀Thanks to NASA Astronaut Mike Mullane for reviewing this video!
