Air Transportation
Atmospheric or air transportation is concerned with vehicles that operate primarily in the earth’s atmosphere.
Lighter-than-air: Good-Year Blimp, hot-air balloons
Heavier-than-air: Passenger planes, military aircraft.
Classified as:

Marine Transportation
Marine transportation is transportation by water.
Inland waterways: Canals, rivers, lakes, coastal water; ferries, canoes, sailboards, motor boats, personal watercraft.
Transoceanic maritime travel : barges, freighters, cruise ships, aircraft carriers, submersibles.
Sub-divided into different modes:

Space Transportation
Space transportation is defined as any form of transportation that reaches beyond the atmosphere surrounding the earth.
Unmanned: Satellites (communication), space probe (Mars mission), missiles (ballistic).
Manned: Vehicular units (Apollo 13), Shuttle units (Endeavour orbiter), space station
Sub-divided into different modes:

Land Transportation continued
People modes - are divided into random and fixed routes.
Random Route: Car & small truck, Bus, Four-Wheeler, Snowmobile, Bicycle, etc.
Fixed Route: Railway, Subway, Elevator, moving sidewalk, etc.

Land Transportation continued
Goods mode - are divided into vehicular systems and stationary systems.
Vehicular system: Railways, Truck/Tractor, cranes, etc.
Stationary systems: Pipelines, conveyors, etc.
