14 CFR §437.3

Envelope expansion means any portion of a flight where planned operations will subject a reusable suborbital vehicle to the effects of altitude, velocity, acceleration, or burn duration that exceed a level or duration successfully verified during an earlier flight. Exclusion area means an area, within an operating area, that a reusable suborbital vehicle's instantaneous impact point may not traverse. Operating area means a three-dimensional region where permitted flights may take place. Permitted vehicle means a reusable suborbital rocket or a reusable launch vehicle that will be launched into a suborbital trajectory or reentered that is operated by a launch or reentry operator under an experimental permit. Reentry impact point means the location of a reusable suborbital vehicle's instantaneous impact point during its unpowered exoatmospheric suborbital flight.
