Solar System Exploration refers to the scientific investigation and study of the planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other celestial bodies within our solar system. This exploration is conducted using a combination of robotic spacecraft, landers, and rovers, as well as telescopic observations from Earth and space. The primary goals of solar system exploration include understanding the formation and evolution of our solar system, studying the physical and chemical properties of celestial bodies, searching for signs of life, and assessing resources for future human exploration. The exploration has significantly advanced our knowledge of planetary science, astronomy, and astrobiology, providing insights into phenomena such as the atmosphere of Mars, the composition of the gas giants, and the potential for habitability beyond Earth.
