The differential geometry of curves on a hypersphere in the Euclidean space reflects instantaneous properties of spherecal motion. In this work, we give some results for differential geometry of spacelike curves in 3-dimensional de-Sitter space. Also, we study the Frenet reference frame, the Frenet equations, and the geodesic curvature and torsion functions to analyze and characterize the shape of the curves in 3-dimensional de-Sitter space.
