Aerospace

Aerospace refers to the branch of technology and industry concerned with the design, development, and production of aircraft, spacecraft, and related systems and equipment. It encompasses the fields of aeronautics, which deals with the science and practice of flying within the Earth’s atmosphere, and astronautics, which focuses on the science and technology of traveling and operating in outer space. The aerospace industry involves the application of engineering disciplines, including mechanical, electrical, and materials engineering, to create vehicles capable of flight, as well as the infrastructure required for air and space travel. The term also includes the study of the flight environment, including atmospheric conditions and the physical laws governing aerodynamics and propulsion. Overall, aerospace plays a critical role in transportation, defense, telecommunications, and exploration beyond our planet.
