The Space Exploration Portal

Space exploration is the endeavor of humans to use technology to reach, explore, and exploit the space outside the Earth's atmosphere. It is generally based on the use of rockets to transport machines, animals, and humans to space. Objects launched into space may stay in orbit around Earth, travel in the space between the planets, or aim to leave the space dominated by the Sun completely.
