NPR Sunday Word Puzzle aired today! Find words (respectively beginning with the letters S, P, A, C, E) for each category!

This week's on-air challenge is a game of Categories based on the word SPACE. For each category given, name something in it starting with each of the letters S-P-A-C-E. For example, if the category were "Girl's Names Ending in 'Y,'" you might say Sally, Patty, Amy, Carly, and Emily. Any answer that works is OK, and you can give the answers in any order.

 

**Note: In some cases there may be other answers. Any answer that works will be counted as correct.
