Space logistics
Space logistics is the discipline concerned with designing, operating, and sustaining space systems by managing the flow of materiel, services, and information across the space system lifecycle. It includes terrestrial logistics in support of space travel, including any additional "design and development, acquisition, storage, movement, distribution, maintenance, evacuation, and disposition of space materiel", movement of people in space (both routine and for medical and other emergencies), and contracting and supplying any required support services for maintaining space travel.
