Space Puns

Welcome to the Punpedia entry on space puns! 🌞🚀🌟

Our space puns are out of this world! There are so many different parts of space to make wordplay from – planets, stars, constellations, and more. Since space is such a huge topic, we’ve split this list up into different categories, starting with a general list that covers the most common subtopics of space, getting more technical and niche as you head down the post.

Space study and astronomy are subtopics of science. If you’re interested in other science-related puns, we also have science and geology puns.

Note: You will not find any obvious uranus puns here (sorry).
