 Ra> bbs.exec("?Space_Menu.js");

This runs "Space_Menu.js" in its own scope, meaning that (likely) won't have
access to variables or functions defined in the script that called it.

 Ra> load("Space_Menu.js");

This loads "Space_Menu.js" into the scope of the script that's currently
running.  (If it helps, you can think of it as essentially appending the
contents of "Space_Menu.js" to the current script.  That may give you some
ideas as to how "Space_Menu.js" is able to reference or modify variables and
functions defined in the parent script.)

Which of these is best to use depends on the design of your module.
