The space logistics research and practice primarily focus on the modeling and management of the astro-logistics supply chain from Earth and on to destinations throughout the solar system as well as the system architecture strategies to minimize both logistics requirements and operational costs of human and robotic operations in space.
This article really needs a major overhaul. I have written to one of the co-authors of one of the more egregiously copyvio'ed sources, and to some members of the MIT Space Logistics group for help in coordinating improvements to this article. I'm not a logistics expert, I only dabbled in defense logistics software for about a year and half, so I'm hoping others take the lead technically
The Gateway Logistics Services (acronymized as GLS) will be a series of uncrewed spaceflights to the Lunar Gateway space station, with the purpose of providing logistical services to the Gateway. Overseen by NASA 's Gateway Logistics Element , the flights will be operated by commercial providers, contracted by the agency in support of crewed ...

Starting in 2012, SLC-40 became the primary launch site for the Dragon cargo vehicle providing provide two-way logistics to and from the International Space Station, a role previously filled by the Space Shuttle until its retirement in 2011. [5] To accommodate the heavier Falcon 9 v1.1 rocket, the launch pad was modified in 2013. [6]
ExPRESS Logistics Carrier number 1. An EXpedite the PRocessing of Experiments to Space Station (ExPRESS) Logistics Carrier (ELC) is an unpressurized attached payload platform for the International Space Station (ISS) that provides mechanical mounting surfaces, electrical power, and command and data handling services for Orbital Replacement Units (ORUs) as well as science experiments on the ISS.
Spaceflight (or space flight) is an application of astronautics to fly objects, usually spacecraft, into or through outer space, either with or without humans on board.Most spaceflight is uncrewed and conducted mainly with spacecraft such as satellites in orbit around Earth, but also includes space probes for flights beyond Earth orbit.
