Space exploration is the investigation and discovery of celestial structures and phenomena beyond Earth’s atmosphere. It encompasses a range of activities conducted by both human and robotic missions, aiming to increase our understanding of the universe, including planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and the broader cosmic environment. This field utilizes advanced technology to gather data through telescopes, satellites, space probes, and manned spacecraft. Objectives of space exploration can include studying the potential for life on other planets, understanding the origins of the solar system, and developing technologies that can benefit life on Earth. Additionally, space exploration can involve human missions to other celestial bodies, such as the Moon and Mars, and may involve the international collaboration of various space agencies and organizations.
