"Space trajectories are paths that spacecraft follow to reach their destinations. They're calculated using physics and celestial mechanics, considering factors like gravity, speed, and direction. These trajectories are crucial in aerospace engineering applications for efficient fuel usage, avoiding collisions with celestial bodies, or tracking satellites or space debris. Precise trajectory planning is vital for mission success, cost-effectiveness, and safety in space exploration."--
