Solar system exploration is the study and investigation of the planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other celestial bodies within our solar system. It involves sending spacecraft, telescopes, and probes to gather data and information about these objects, in order to better understand their geology, atmospheres, and potential for supporting life. Solar system exploration aims to expand our knowledge of the origins and evolution of our planetary system, and to ultimately answer questions about the possibility of extraterrestrial life and the potential for future human exploration of other worlds.
