Judging by the space whales they killed and the damage Thor's charged hammer shots were shown to do, Yes and rather easily.
This is what the shuttles are made of
The nose cone made of reinforced carbon-carbon
The the chassis is made of an alloy of titanium, aluminium and vanadium
The windows are main from reinforced polycarbonate.
The rest is made of fibreglass and carbon fibre
The tiles are made of silica ceramic tiles, which can withstand temperatures as high as 3000°F (1650°C) while maintaining the vehicle's structure at no more than 350°F (177°C).
New space shuttles like Discovery use composite absorption tiles instead.
Polystyrene is used for insulation

Hal has power to win, but he is to much of a rookie to fight against the Avengers. Anyway in June I expect a flame war when Man of Steel Comes out.
Unless they F up the movie, Superman should win most any thread....the only reason I've ever given anyone a chance against him is that up until now his movie versions have had the fighting skills of a crippled 6 year old.

We can end the discussion of Superman vs The Avengers before it even starts. The movie isn't even out and it's already completely obvious that Superman would wreck the Avengers.
