The US Space Shuttle was an iconic spacecraft and a workhorse for the US space program, but did you know that the Soviet Union also built their own Space Shuttle type spacecraft known as the Buran. Russia and the Soviet Union planned an entire fleet of Buran class orbiters that would fly attached to their Energia rocket which was a powerful and versatile rocket. Many argue that the Buran was actually a huge upgrade to the US Space Shuttle program and was known as Shuttle 2.0. What do you think?
