Space Astrophysics

Space astrophysics is the study of celestial phenomena beyond Earth's atmosphere, using space-based observations. By placing instruments like telescopes in orbit, astronomers can collect data without interference from the atmosphere, capturing clearer images and a wider range of wavelengths. This field investigates the universe's origins, evolution, and structure, examining stars, galaxies, black holes, and cosmic events. Space astrophysics plays a crucial role in answering fundamental questions about the universe and our place in it, enhancing our understanding of physics, chemistry, and the potential for life beyond Earth.
