Common Space Acronyms in Astronomy and Aeronautics

As terminology” Space” is used in multiple ways. Space can be the vacuum surrounding the earth, in a room, at some location, in a document, and even in abstract sense like breathing space in a speech delivered. In commercial terms also one usually comes across concepts of space economy and space utilization.

However in the modern age dominated by science and technology, its most pertinent use is in the field of Astronomy and Aeronautics. Scientifically space is always related to the universe beyond the planet earth. Over hundred billion galaxies constitute the universe. Milky Way in our own galaxy is around 120,000 light years across and has around 200-400 billion stars. Both astronomy and aeronautics deal with various aspects of the universe in their respective ways.
