Most boosters used in Crewed Space Flight were expendable and therefore no longer exist. This list consists of leftover hardware or full-scale simulations. In some cases, actual excess missiles were “dressed-up” to play the part of a historic vehicle. Starting with the Space Shuttle, portions of the boosters became reusable and those artifacts are often flown.
