Human spaceflight (also referred to as manned spaceflight) is space travel with a crew aboard the spacecraft. When a spacecraft is crewed, it can be operated directly, as opposed to being remotely operated or autonomous.
While spaceflight has typically been a government-directed activity, commercial spaceflight has gradually been taking on a greater role.
