Only if it is the inflatable kind.

No. A space shuttle needs a very long landing strip on which to land, and aircraft carrier runways are not long enough for that function. Shuttles cannot "take off," except by being "piggy backed" onto a rocket and launched from a vertical position. +5

Can't take off from a carrier because of the weight of the Shuttle + fuel tanks and because the heat from the blast would melt the carrier. Can't land on a carrier because the carrier isn't long enough. Also carriers stop planes using a hook on the plane to catch a cable on deck. The shuttle doesn't have a tailhook.

I don't think so

Have you seen how a space shuttle takes off? It sits on a launch pad on top of a huge rocket which blasts off. The whole thing would never fit on an aircraft carrier and would be enormously top heavy. Just to get it to the launch pad needs a specially designed multi-million dollar crawler. The weight of this vehicle with the space shuttle on it is so enormous that it has to drive on a road of crushed rock 7 feet deep. As it drives along it turns those rocks on the top into powder. I've been there and seen that. It travels at about 1 mph to the launch pad. A space shuttle landing is basically a rock with short wings. It dives at very high speeds through most of its descent. It is going so fast that the nose and wings are covered with a special ceramic to prevent the whole thing from burning up. It manages to land by falling at the ground and then pulling up at the last possible moment. There is no second chance; no flyby for a second try. You either land or die trying. It's hard enough with a huge piece of nice flat ground and would be utterly impossible with ship moving side to side, forwards and up and down at the same time. So the answer is an emphatic no.

Not yet.

The shuttle doesn't have the capability to take off horizontally because it is not an airplane, but rather a glider. It is simply not designed to get off the ground on it's own. When coming in from orbit, the shuttle requires a three mile runway to land on, which is a bit longer than your standard aircraft carrier.

its too big to land on a aircraft carrier

The space shuttle is a flying brick swallowed by a turkey and can't take off without booster rockets strapped to its ass.

The runway that the shuttle lands on is over 10,000 feet long and needs a great deal of it. It has to take off vertically.
