Starcore is the name of a series of fictional spacecraft in the Marvel Universe.

Starcore One was an orbiting laboratory satellite space station designed by NASA physicist Dr. Peter Corbeau. It first appeared in "Hulk" #148 (Feb 1972) and was created by Archie Goodwin and Herb Trimpe. Starcore was financed, launched, and manned under United Nations auspices, and primarily used for scientific observation of the sun. The station is notable for detecting the activities of Dark Phoenix in Earth's solar system. The station was destroyed by instabilities caused by a Shi'ar wormhole. [Avengers #345]

Starcore Command was a control facility for the Starcore program, built after the destruction of Starcore One, and contracted to Stark Enterprises. It first appeared in Iron Man #319.

Starcore Station was the successor to Starcore One. It first appeared in "X-Men Unlimited" #13.
