interplanetary travel

Interplanetary travel involves sending spacecraft from Earth to other planets in our solar system. It requires precise planning, powerful rockets, and advanced navigation to overcome Earth's gravity and reach a target planet. Travel times vary; for example, Mars missions can take about six to nine months. Spacecraft use propulsion systems to accelerate, coast through space, and use gravity assists to save fuel. Communication relies on satellites and radio signals. The goal is to explore, study planetary environments, and eventually support human exploration, all while dealing with challenges like radiation, vacuum, and limited resources.
