Challenger because its the only one I got to see in person. I still get tears when I think of what happened.
- Status
Atlantis is my chosen one. I had the opprotunity to visit Kennedy Space Center and this incredible piece of engineering.
I really love all of the Apollo landers and vehicles, but that is because of what they accomplished with almost no power computing power to do it. Also, I am very intrigued by the new age rockets and their capabilities.
Like many people I was a fan of all of them. It was always exciting from liftoff to landing. The missions were alway cool.
The shuttle challenger is my favourite. I know challenger exploded killing every person on board, but it still was a big leap towards equality in space.
I think that the Voyager spacecraft are amazing! The first objects to leave our solar system! Plus, they launched the same year I was born, which makes them extra special to me 
Today's NASA DOE announcement of Nuclear Propulsion contracts when fully usable will certainly reduce travel time to Mars.
But what also saddens me is that we should be more aggressively pursuing Fusion or based on Fusion propulsion in 2021 rather than go back about 40-50 years when NERVA and other such concepts were taken.
Obviously Fission could have more issues and even thermal nuclear combos will have materials emitted out and thus some limitations?

Hello , personally I have never seen a space shuttle.But I am always astonished by them.
Looking a space shuttle launch on TV mesmerises me .
I wish to become an astronaut one day
and I love to learn about their designs and t built.For me STS-7 (Challenger) is the special one because it involved taking first American Women up in the space. Thinking about all the future possibilities and women empowerment. I feel overwhelmed

The Event Horizon, because it made me terrified of Sam Neil when it possessed him. And the ship design is really cool and can look like a number of things depending on the angle you are looking at it from.
Celebrate a remarkable spacecraft with this scale model!
Howdy, folks! We’re back with yet another giveaway for the Space.com community, in partnership with The Space Store. This time around, we’re going back in time to celebrate an absolutely historic spacecraft.
First launching as part of the Space Transportation System back in 1992, Endeavour is a reminder of what space-faring success can look like.

Columbia and Challenger were my two favorite shuttles. Both hold a ton of sentimental value with me.
Columbia because it was the first shuttle in space. R.I.P. to those heroes lost in the 2003 re-entry disaster.
Challenger because there was a teacher on board (Christine McAuliffe) that I knew through my 4th grade music class teacher at the time. I remember the day of the Challenger disaster vividly, as we were all watching live in school when it happened. It was a very traumatic day, and I remember many of our teachers in tears afterward. So that shuttle and it's astronauts will always hold an honorable place in my heart.

Personally, I like them all! But having to choose I would say Enterprise. Iconic name, and the first schematics I received back in the 70's when I wrote to NASA as an 8 year old, volunteering for the astronaut training program!
The Endeavour may be my favorite, but all shuttles are truly amazing. A true loss that we are still not using the platform.

It is still Apollo 11 my favorite spacecraft wherein it was the first spacecraft that landed on the lovely Moon. What I like about it are its structure and its design making it able to stand out and reached the outside of the Earth.
I love the Voyager 1 space probe 'cause I love to travel farther much much far away!!!

For me, as a Canadian it has to be Atlantis. This was the shuttle that took Chris Hadfield to Mir to become the first Canadian to operate the Canadarm in space. Yes, it has to be Atlantis.
I never got to see Shuttle in real life I was to young, but I've seen loads of archive footage from the early missions right up to Endeavour, it really was a classic age of space.
Celebrate a remarkable spacecraft with this scale model!
Howdy, folks! We’re back with yet another giveaway for the Space.com community, in partnership with The Space Store. This time around, we’re going back in time to celebrate an absolutely historic spacecraft.
First launching as part of the Space Transportation System back in 1992, Endeavour is a reminder of what space-faring success can look like. That first launch was absolutely flawless, representing a notable moment in the history of space exploration. What’s more, Endeavour went on to have a long career spanning 25 missions - including the longest spacewalk ever recorded at the time!
This month, we’re giving the community the chance to win two amazing prizes to celebrate this remarkable shuttle:

My favourite spacecraft is NASA's Cassini. And my favourite part is its final approach to Saturn and destruction into the planet's atmosphere wings.

Thanks!!
As an Avid Aviator, I watched the Endeavour first launched on May 7, 1992.
The model is a reminder of her iconic 25 missions, one of which was the primary goal during that mission was to repair and release a communications satellite. Fascinating to say the least.
