multi-purpose crew vehicle
A multi-purpose crew vehicle (MPCV) is a spacecraft designed to transport astronauts safely to space destinations such as the Moon or Mars, as well as support scientific research and exploration missions. It combines various features: life support systems, comfortable cabins, and advanced technology for navigation and safety. Unlike specialized vehicles for short trips or cargo-only missions, an MPCV is versatile, capable of handling different mission types and durations. Its goal is to provide reliable, sustainable, and flexible transportation for crew members exploring beyond Earth, supporting ongoing human space exploration efforts.
