Astronautics

Astronautics is the science and technology involved in the design, development, and operation of spacecraft and the exploration of outer space. It encompasses a range of disciplines including engineering, physics, biology, and medicine, all focused on the challenges of traveling and living beyond Earth’s atmosphere. Astronautics includes the study of spacecraft systems, propulsion methods, life support systems, and the effects of space travel on humans. The field is primarily concerned with both manned and unmanned missions, aiming to advance our understanding of space and facilitate activities such as satellite deployment, space exploration, and potential future colonization of other celestial bodies.
