Space Shuttle 

A partially reusable airplane-like spacecraft operated from 1981 to 2011 (30 years) by NASA. The launch vehicle consists of two solid rocket boosters (SRB), one external tank, and the orbiter (the space shuttle). The boosters and shuttle were recovered and reused, while the external tank burned up upon re-entry.
