Background
Spaceflight is an application of astronautics to fly spacecraft into or through outer space, either with or without humans on board. Normally this is from an alien species as they are most famous for mastering interstellar travel through space.
Applications
There are various different levels of technology in fiction that give spaceflight:
- Human Spaceflight: Spaceflight of our current age, this is the lowest technological form, allowing trips to the Moon to take 3 days. However it takes nearly a year to get to even the nearest planet.
- Interplanetary Spaceflight: Spaceflight of a race that has become highly advanced being capable of traveling to other planets in a short timeframe.
- Interstellar Travel: The common form of travel in most science-fiction series, this is technology allowing one to travel across to different solar systems in a short timeframe.
- Intergalactic Travel: Another common form of travel in most science-fiction series, this is technology allowing one to travel across different galaxies in a short timeframe.
There are other forms of space flight beyond simply using a spacecraft howere, the following are listed below:
- Movement through abilities: Usually consisting of travel by manipulating gravity and movement through various portals. This could also consist of travel through space via Flight the most common form, allowing the user to ignore the dangers of space.
- Movement through other non-spacecraft technology: Usually a form of teleporter that allows one to traverse in space without moving inside of a space craft, those these are normally very rare.
