For its first two flights in 1981, the Space Shuttle's external tank was painted white. The latex paint covered the foam insulation to shield it from the Sun's ultraviolet light on the launch pad. The foam kept the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen cold, limited boil-off and stopped ice from forming, about 1 in (2.5 cm) thick over most of the tank. Engineers found that UV only turned the foam from tan to dark orange, with no structural risk. Starting with STS-3 in March 1982, NASA left the paint off and saved about 600 lb (272 kg). The tank rode almost all the way to orbit before dropping away and breaking up over the ocean, and it was the only major part of the stack that was not reused, so tank weight cut almost one for one into payload capacity.
