Preferred term

spaceflight  

Definition

  • Still in its infancy, spaceflight is a high-risk endeavor that is constantly evolving and experiences leaps and setbacks. Although it is considered experimental flight by some, the broad tax-paying publics of many nations show little tolerance for the failures, deaths, and setbacks associated with spaceflight.
