Aerospace refers to the branch of technology and industry concerned with the design, development, and production of aircraft, spacecraft, and associated systems and equipment. It encompasses both atmospheric and space environments, involving the science and engineering of vehicles that operate within the Earth’s atmosphere and those that travel beyond it. The term is often divided into two main sectors: aeronautics, which deals with flight in the Earth’s atmosphere, and astronautics, which focuses on flight in outer space. Aerospace encompasses various fields, including mechanical, electrical, and materials engineering, as well as computer science, physics, and environmental studies. The industry plays a crucial role in transportation, telecommunications, defense, and exploration of outer space.
