:I guess that depends on one's definition of spacecraft, and whether or not it includes space stations. Space stations obviously don't survive landing on moons or planets, and certainly Skylab didn't. - [[User:BilCat|BilCat]] ([[User talk:BilCat|talk]]) 04:44, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
::I wouldn't normally think of ''Skylab'' or ISS as a spacecraft, but there's an argument that could be made: they do operate entirely in vacuum & weren't intended to re-enter.

:::I support deletion of the sentence in question. Merriam-webster.com defines "spacecraft" as "''a vehicle or device designed for travel or operation outside the earth's atmosphere''", which implies that "manned spacecraft" includes manned space stations. Also, space stations are included in the Wikipedia articles [[Spacecraft]] and [[List of manned spacecraft]]. -- [[User:HLachman|HLachman]] ([[User talk:HLachman|talk]]) 13:50, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
::::Maybe instead of deleting the sentence, change it to something like, The Lunar Module was designed to operate exclusively in the airless vacuum of space. [[User:VQuakr|VQuakr]] ([[User talk:VQuakr|talk]]) 22:18, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
