Aerospace is a field of developing and studying aircraft, space-craft. It is one of leading industry in current world and we need it for exploration, studying our planet and help fight climate change.

From a two manned aircraft in the 1900s, we have come a long way, and in 2019 we have commercial aircraft which can carry more than 850 passengers at a time!

But this is just the skies. We have also made spaceflight possible and have sent out space crafts that can orbit other planets and study them in great detail.

There are two types of study that is Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering.

Aeronautical deals with within earth's atmosphere like aircraft, helicopters, drones, etc. it also includes making of more efficient aircraft, not only commercial but private and military aircrafts also.

Astronautical Engineering which is also called Aerospace engineering is the field concerned with spacecraft and space technologies. The term 'space technologies' is also quit expansive as it relates to satellite development, energy harnessing, rovers, propulsions, etc.

Astronautical engineering has helped us to go beyond earth, to explore the vast expanse that is the space. Currently, we have more than 4800 satellites orbiting the earth. They comprise of the different satellites launched by different space research centers around the world.

One of our greatest achievements in engineering space structures is the International Space Station or ISS. It is a low orbit space research center that came into fruition from the agreement between 5 different countries.

Aerospace engineering isn’t just going to have a bright future, it is going to be revolutionizing in more than one way.
