A [[spacer]] is a person who is a member of a space-going navy or a civilian spaceship crew.

"Spacer" can be used as a generic term to collectively refer to all ranks of naval personnel and merchant ship personnel, in the same way that "soldier" is used as a generic term for army personnel of any rank. Spacer is also the specific title of the lowest grades of naval and merchant services.

The traditional symbol for spacers is an archaic vac-helmet.

==Naval Use==
In the [[Royal Manticoran Navy]], the [[Grayson Space Navy]], and the [[Republic of Haven Navy]], the three most junior enlisted grades are:

*[[Spacer Third Class]] (E-1)
*[[Spacer Second Class]] (E-2)
*[[Spacer First Class]] (E-3)

==Merchant Marine Use==
In the [[Royal Manticoran Merchant Marine]], entry-level crew members with no endorsement (departmental training qualifications) are:

*Apprentice Spacer ([[C-1]])
*Spacer II ([[C-2]])
*Spacer III ([[C-3]])
*Spacer IV ([[C-6]])
*Spacer V ([[C-7]])
*Spacer VI ([[C-8]])

The most junior grades of Deck Department endorsed crew members have the following titles:

*Ordinary Spacer ([[C-2]])
*Efficient Spacer ([[C-3]])
*Able Spacer ([[C-6]])
*Leading Spacer ([[C-7]])
