What is your term for a vessel that goes into space?

[llamatoes]

For my spacecraft, I refer to them as ships, boats, barges, yachts, launches and other such terms which are used to describe sailing vessels, but most of my ships do look like Nuclear powered barges.

[Fyrem]

um, .. well... "Spaceship".

[Canopus]

I call them spacecrafts:)

[llamatoes]

Sigh... you're all so unoriginal.

If anyone needs me, I'll be out back, crying over the lack of creativity of my fellow forum users.

[Malachai]

I like to call my ships that have made it into space "Failed Disasters," because, to be honest, most of my ships are successful disasters.

[thes50]

Well, the one I commonly use in my videos is Spaceship, sometimes I call them SpaceOHGODIT'SCRASHINGSOMEONEHELPTHATPOORKERBAL.

[42undead2]

Well, uuhh...

Short-term transport? I've only gotten to the moon 3 times, all other have just failed to reach orbit.

[Jarod645]

I put prefixes on mine to signify their purpose. SFOV [name], for example, is a Space Faring Orbital Vehicle, and pertains to a ship meant just to achieve orbit around Kerban. SFOS is Space Faring Orbital Satalite, SFML is Space Faring Mün lander... you get the point.

[Wijbrandus]

"Coffins".

[nyrath]

Spacecraft that are multi-staged are called either "stacks" or "disintegrating totem poles"

[RoboRay]

Nucular wessals.

[Fyrem]

only if in Alameda

[electronicfox]

Disaster-in-waiting.

Up-goer and space-stayers are personal favourites, as well as sky-shooter.

[Dictator Dan]

Lagcreators.

[m1xte]

Avaruusalus.

[LeonG17]

Glorified Fireworks.

[Fiddlestyx]

I call them "Debris", because that's how most of them end up.

[CtrlAltEL1TE]

Space boat!

[AncientAstronaut]

Spacecraft.

[Malaugrym]

I must view all my...things...in terms of "debris potential."

[mod1982]

Ship, craft, or annoying-thing-that-will-eventually-blow-up-due-to-the-Kraken.

[viktorserecros]

Varies between:

bottle rocket

ground hog

Mun Impaling Space Spear

FCSBL (Forgot to Check Staging Before Launch)

Launcher (for the occasional success)

[Peenvogel]

Strangely I refer to them as "her". Look at her go, I say to myself when I hit space on the launchpad.

[astropapi1]

I call them potatoes.

[koshelenkovv]

Those without wings are rockets.

Those with wings are planes.

Two other types of crafts which cannot go to space on they own are rovers and boats.
