Abstract
Space transportation involves three very different, mutually-exclusive types of space activity; take-off, spaceflight travel, and landing. Take-offs were the subject of the last chapter, and spaceflight and landings were discussed in this chapter. Ten incidents and accidents were documented during spaceflight, while seven cases of bad reentry and landing were documented. American, Chinese and Soviet accidents and incidents were documented.
