!Spaceship A vessel not capable of interstellar faster than light travel. Spaceships include many of the same classes of vessels that might be [Starship]s, merely lacking a hyperspace drive. There is a very large number of different types of spaceship, including large interplanetary cargo haulers that traverse to asteroid mines, fast surface to orbit shuttles, and even passenger liners where more than one world is colonised n a system. See [Interplanetary Merchant Ships]. **Some Spaceship Types** Heavy Battleship (HBB) Heavy Carrier (HCV) Interplanetary Hauler Interplanetary Liner Heavy Shuttle Medium Shuttle Light Shuttle **Gravitic Spaceships** Late in 3215, Earth scientists announced a breakthrough in propulsion technology, giving rise to a new class of Graivtic Shuttle. These are not yet in widespread use.
