A spacecraft is a vehicle or device designed for travel or operation in outer space. It can be used for various purposes, including scientific exploration, communication, Earth observation, and transportation of humans and cargo. Spacecraft can operate in various environments, from low Earth orbit to interplanetary space, and may be manned or unmanned. They are typically equipped with systems for propulsion, navigation, power generation, and communication. Common types of spacecraft include satellites, space probes, space stations, and crewed vehicles such as space shuttles. The design and functionality of a spacecraft depend on its intended mission and the specific conditions of space it will encounter.
