Space Science

The term space science may mean:

  • The study of issues specifically related to space travel and space exploration, including space medicine.
  • Science performed in outer space (see space research).
  • The study of everything in outer space; this is sometimes called astronomy, but more recently astronomy can also be regarded as a division of broader space science, which has grown to include other related fields.

Famous quotes containing the words space and/or science:

    “In the tale proper—where there is no space for development of character or for great profusion and variety of incident—mere construction is, of course, far more imperatively demanded than in the novel.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “Man lives for science as well as bread.”
    —William James (1842–1910)
