A launch vehicle or carrier rocket is a rocket-propelled vehicle
used to carry a payload from Earth's surface to space, usually to
Earth orbit or beyond. Our WEB-X carrier rocket is the most powerful
in operation. Standing 150 metres tall, it's quite an awe-inspiring
sight on the launch pad!

Space capsule
A space capsule is an often-crewed spacecraft that uses a blunt-body reentry
capsule to reenter the Earth's atmosphere without wings. Our capsule is where
you'll spend your time during the flight. It includes a space gym, cinema,
and plenty of other activities to keep you entertained.

Spaceport
A spaceport or cosmodrome is a site for launching (or receiving) spacecraft, by analogy to the seaport for ships or
airport for aircraft. Based in the famous Cape Canaveral, our spaceport is ideally situated to take advantage of the
Earth’s rotation for launch.
