A Fenspace vessel can be anything from a Subaru hatchback with a space drive to a multimegaton floating city. This section is devoted to anything in Fenspace that can move under its own power.

Space Craft

Space isn't remote at all. It's only an hour's drive away if your car could go straight upwards.

—Fred Hoyle

The most common space transports by far, Space Craft are defined as any spacecraft that can be landed within a standard parking lot's parking spaces. The technical requirement is 'less than 18 feet along a viable direction of thrust and less than 9 feet horizontally perpendicular to this axis, with landing gear suitable to a flat surface'. Craft between 9 and 18 feet wide and less than 9 feet long will usually have to demonstrate that they can fly sideways with reasonable precision before anyone believes that they count as Space Craft, as otherwise they can't be relied upon to be able to navigate into the internal Space Craft docks of most really large facilities. Most Space Craft, for obvious reasons, began life as automobiles.

Space Ships

In general, Space Ships are considered to be anything mobile that falls between the definitions of Space Craft and Space Vessels. There is considerable variation in size and type - modified aircraft are fairly common but probably not a majority. Typically they function as mobile homes or as medium cargo transports but many other purposes exist.

Space Vessels

This designation is reserved for the largest of craft - heavy cargo haulers and semi-mobile stations being the most common. In general, any space vessel that has a longest dimension in excess of 250 feet is classed as a Space Vessel. Most docking facilities insist that they do not make close approaches, instead transferring crew, passengers and cargo by means of auxiliary craft.

Space Ports

A Space Port is defined as any space station that has capability to dock Space Craft without the use of specialist gear on the part of the Space Craft (Stations that that require specialized docking gear to allow access without EVA are unofficially designated as b####y rude), but that cannot usually make accommodation for most Space Ships. Many Space Ports have a 'parking lot' area and/or extendable airlocks that can make a tight seal around car doors or windows.

Space Docks

Space Docks are space stations that have a reasonable chance of docking Space Ships internally. While there are no guarantees, designating yourself as a Space Dock implies that a good faith effort will be made to dock anything less than a Space Vessel if landing permission is needed, and that Space Craft are available for ferrying duty if docking is not possible.
