Space Logistics

Space logistics involves managing the planning, transportation, and supply of resources, equipment, and personnel needed for space missions and operations. It ensures that spacecraft have necessary fuel, parts, and supplies to function effectively and reach their destinations. This includes developing specialized vehicles, handling storage in orbit, and coordinating resupply missions, similar to logistics on Earth but adapted for the unique challenges of space environments. Efficient space logistics is crucial for sustained exploration, satellite maintenance, and future space habitats, supporting long-term human presence beyond our planet.
