spacerelated

Spacerelated is an adjective used to describe topics connected with outer space, space exploration, astronomy, and the technologies and industries built around them. In practice, spacerelated topics span science, engineering, policy, commerce, education, and culture that pertain to space beyond the Earth.

Standard writing in English typically uses space-related with a hyphen; spacerelated is less common and may appear in headlines, branding, or keyword lists. When clarity is important, prefer space-related phrasing. Spacerelated may be treated as a closed compound in titles or product names, as in spacerelated technologies or spacerelated policy.

Examples of spacerelated areas include propulsion systems, satellite communications, space weather, astrobiology, exoplanet research, orbital mechanics, space law, launch services, space tourism, and the economics of space activities.

In encyclopedic writing, it is usually best to align with standard terms unless spacerelated is clearly defined in the text. The term emphasizes the space aspect rather than aeronautics or aviation topics. Related terms include space-related, space science, astronomy, aerospace engineering, and space policy.
