A '''spaceport''', also known as a '''starport''',<ref name="exo">'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level, ''[[Exodus]]''</ref> is a location on a planet where spacecraft launch and land, by analogy with seaport for seaborne ships or airport for aircraft. Spaceports may serve as transport hubs for cargo or passengers, or both. | A '''spaceport''', also known as a '''starport''',<ref name="exo">'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level, ''[[Exodus]]''</ref> is a location on a planet where spacecraft launch and land, by analogy with seaport for seaborne ships or airport for aircraft. Spaceports may serve as transport hubs for cargo or passengers, or both.

Alternatively, commuters or goods may be shipped to orbital platforms connected to [[space elevator]]s which serve as a method of transportation between outer space and a planet surface, a method cheaper than the use of rocket fuel to escape a planet's atmosphere. A [[shuttle port]] is a type of spaceport presumably used primarily by shuttlecraft.<ref>''[[Axon]]'', [[Media:old_mombasa.ogg|old_mombasa]]</ref> | |||
