Understanding basic physics is crucial for space exploration from "summary" of Rocket Science: A Beginner's Guide to the Fundamentals of Spaceflight by Andrew Rader

To truly grasp the complexities of space exploration, one must first have a solid foundation in basic physics. This is because the fundamental principles of physics govern everything from the motion of celestial bodies to the behavior of spacecraft in space. Without an understanding of these principles, it would be nearly impossible to navigate the challenges of space travel. One of the most important concepts in physics that is essential for space exploration is Newton's laws of motion. These laws dictate how objects move and interact with each other in space, providing the necessary framework for designing spacecraft and planning missions. For example, Newton's first law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force. This law is crucial for understanding how spa...
