Your Definition
The practice of designing systems where the primary constraints are cosmic distance, timescales longer than human civilization, and survival in the total vacuum of deep space. It's [engineering] with a multi-generational [perspective]: building ships that must self-repair for a thousand years, creating robust AI to guide missions where no help can be sent, and developing manufacturing that can use unknown resources at the [destination]. It's as much about sociology and ethics (designing societies for a generation ship) as it is about metallurgy and plasma physics.
