Spacecraft Defined
The following is in context to Space, because it's common for a single word to have multiple meanings you will find additional research links near the bottom of the page.
"A vehicle that is launched into space to observe something in nature (or made by man) for scientific or technical purposes. A spacecraft is sometimes correctly referred to as a satellite, if it orbits a body, such as a satellite of Earth. But sometimes the word satellite is used incorrectly. For example, the two Voyager spacecraft are not satellites, as there are sometimes called, because they are not orbiting around anything. They will eventually leave the solar system to go into the stars."
