The number of wheels on a spaceship can vary depending on its design and purpose. Most spacecraft, such as the Space Shuttle or modern crewed capsules, do not have traditional wheels for space travel since they operate in a vacuum. However, they do have wheels for landing on Earth, typically ranging from two to six, depending on the vehicle. For example, the Space Shuttle had three main landing gear wheels.
