W-class Artificial Satellites are artificial bodies placed in orbit around fixed celestial objects (stars, planets, moons, orbital complexes, etc.) in order to collect or disseminate information or serve other sophontic functions.
- This category covers smaller artificial satellites. The larger ones can be found at Space Station.
- Natural Satellites or moons can be found on pages by those names.
- The Supraclass designation is also known as Ship Mission, Ship Mission Code, Mission, or Ship Hull Designation.
- It is a starship supraclass.
