Crew Exploration Vehicle

The Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) is a spacecraft designed to transport astronauts to and from space, particularly for missions beyond Earth's orbit, such as lunar or deep-space exploration. It functions as a crew capsule providing life support, safety, and navigation systems to ensure crew safety during launch, orbit, and re-entry. Developed by NASA, the CEV supports human spaceflight ambitions by enabling reliable and reusable transportation for astronauts to explore areas beyond low Earth orbit, advancing scientific research and potential future human settlements beyond our planet.
