What Does EOR Stand For?

EOR stands for Earth Orbit Rendezvous

Earth Orbit Rendezvous (EOR) is a space mission architecture that involves launching separate spacecraft components into Earth orbit and assembling them in space. This approach allows for the transport of larger payloads and complex missions, including crewed and uncrewed operations, by utilizing the lower gravitational constraints of orbit for assembly rather than launching a single, fully assembled vehicle from the Earth’s surface. EOR is particularly useful for missions requiring significant resources, such as crewed trips to Mars or other deep space destinations.
