Etymology

The concept of a spaceship dates back to ancient times with references in mythology and literature. However, the modern idea of a spaceship as a vehicle for space travel emerged in the early 20th century with the development of rocket technology. The first successful manned spaceflight took place in 1961 with Yuri Gagarin orbiting the Earth. Since then, spacecraft have been used for various missions including moon landings, space station construction, and exploration of other planets.
