Options

Place ((Asteroid spacecraft)) at the end of an article, but above any categories.

This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.

To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

((Asteroid spacecraft|state=collapsed)) will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.
((Asteroid spacecraft|state=expanded)) will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
((Asteroid spacecraft|state=autocollapse)) will show the template autocollapsed, i.e. if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar, but if not, it is fully visible.
