They launched from the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. Five complete Space Shuttle orbiter vehicles were built and flown on a total of 135 missions from 1981 to 2011. The first (STS-1) of four orbital test flights occurred in 1981, leading to operational flights (STS-5) beginning in 1982. Its official program name was Space Transportation System (STS), taken from a 1969 plan for a system of reusable spacecraft where it was the only item funded for development.
