Spaceship

A spaceship or starship is any manned spacecraft that has the ability to transport and support a crew across space. It flies using an internal engine and propellant fuel as opposed to a spacecraft which is propelled by an external force.

For travelling within a solar system, starships use sub-light technology, such as fusion drives. This is a Type I technology. Spaceships in The Expanse use fusion drives.

For interstellar distances, starships use faster-than-light spacecraft propulsion technology, such as warp drive. This is a Type II technology. An iconic starship was the USS Enterprise in Star Trek.

A bioship is an organic spaceship.

For vast galactic distances or beyond, spaceships need to enter natural or artificial constructs like wormholes or hyperspace. Type III civilizations and beyond might not even need spaceships as they will have found methods of instantaneous teleportation.
