A spacecraft comprises a carrier rocket (1), a closed cargo space (3) on the carrier rocket, a main effective payload (4) and an adapter structure (6) on which the main effective payload (4) is releasably supported. The adapter structure (6) consists of an assembly (7) of a connecting body (8) and a carrier body (9) with a subsidiary payload. Each connecting body (8) has an upper end which is connected to the main payload (4) or to a connecting body (8) of a further, upper assembly (7) by means of an upper coupling (5), and has a lower end which is connected to the carrier rocket or to a connecting body of a further, lower assembly (7) by means of a lower coupling (10). A carrier body (9) is connected to the associated connecting body (8) at a position between said ends of this connecting body (8). The carrier body (9) and the subsidiary payload supported thereby are situated outside the connecting body (8) in the cargo space (3).
