COSMONAUTICS; VEHICLES OR EQUIPMENT THEREFOR (apparatus for, or methods of, winning materials from extraterrestrial sources Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...E21C 51/00)

|  | B64G |
Note(s) In this sub-class, the term "cosmonautics" includes all transport outside the earth's atmosphere, and thus includes artificial earth satellites, and interplanetary and interstellar travel. This sub-class deals only with vehicles, equipment, etc., which are peculiarly adapted for cosmonautics. Thus, vehicles and equipment applicable to both cosmonautics and aeronautics are classified in the appropriate aeronautical sub-class of class Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B64.
