Spacecraft are vehicles designed to travel through and explore space and can be used for a variety of purposes, such as scientific research, communication, and transportation and can typically launched from Earth using rockets or other propulsion systems. Once in space, spacecraft may use their own engines or rely on the gravitational pull of planets and moons to move around the solar system. Spacecraft come in many shapes and sizes, from small CubeSats to large satellites that can carry humans into orbit. They also have various components such as sensors, cameras, antennas, thrusters for maneuvering in space and power sources like solar panels or nuclear reactors. With advances in technology over the years, they have become more capable of performing complex tasks far away from Earth's atmosphere.
