How Spacecraft Steal Speed From Planets 🚀🪐

Spacecraft don’t always need huge amounts of fuel to travel across the Solar System. Instead, they use something called a gravity assist, a maneuver where a planet’s gravity acts like a giant slingshot.
Missions like Voyager used this technique to reach distant planets far faster than normal. One close flyby can accelerate a spacecraft by thousands of kilometers per hour.
It’s one of the smartest tricks in space travel.
