A shuttle is a vehicle which does regular transfers between two locations. In Orbiter this name gets used for various spacecraft:
- The NASA Space Shuttle, also known as Space Transportation System.
- Shuttle-A, a medium cargo shuttle for celestial bodies without atmosphere.
- The Shuttle-D, another cargo shuttle inspired by the Shuttle-A.
- Shuttle-PB, a tiny personal spacecraft.
Other Orbiter spacecraft, which also fulfil the role of a shuttle, but are not named like that are:
- Delta-glider
- DeltaGliderEX, a large spaceplane inspired by the Delta-glider.
- Aries, Orion, Titov and Gagarin from the World of 2001 addon. Also the Moonbus and the Rocketbus can be considered shuttles.
