Program Family

This dimension groups missions by the program family they belong to, such as Apollo, Soyuz or Artemis. Wikipedia notes that "human spaceflight programs include the Soyuz, Shenzhou, the past Apollo Moon landing and the Space Shuttle programs," each a distinct family spanning many individual flights. Browsing this way lets a visitor follow one program family across every mission it flew.
