On the other hand, a spacecraft includes an orbital space flight in the orbit of the earth before returning to the surface of the planet.
Ships can carry two types, one that people as its crews or passengers, and the other is the robotic space probe of either autonomous or tele-robot is controlled.
The use of robotic spacecraft are two types, the one that are just around the Earth called spacecraft leaves, and the others who remain in the orbit of the Earth are called artificial satellites.
There are quite a few uses of space craft that goes into space. They are designed for different purposes, communication, meteorology, reviews, war, navigation, planetary exploration, and much more comprehensive would be used.
Depending on the purpose built to a spacecraft, the vehicle may consist of several sub-systems that exist for the mission profile of the spacecraft. Some of the important components are briefly discussed below.
Attitude determination and control
This is referred to simply as ADAC, ADC or ACS.
This sub-system is to remain balanced for the probe in space, given their orientation used, and remain under the control of external torques and forces in the right way.
The sub-system consists of sensors and actuators with the right software to control the operations of the mechanism. The control system also facilitates the spacecraft properly show their relevant components, and pointed toward the sun, the solar cells and had ground for communication, and many more.
GNC
This sub-system is the orientation of the satellites will be issued after the commands. It does the calculations necessary to transfer them to the sensors for the spacecraft to the direction or position that requires leaders.
In this way, the spacecraft into the correct orbit is held, and the trajectory is adjusted by this sub-system.
Command and Data Processing
This sub-system for the decoding of the commands that are received by the communication sub-system, and after decoding, it sends them to the various subsystems of the spacecraft.
The sub-system called CDH briefly replaced by other data from various sub-systems and stores the data on solid-state recorder.
Power
The power module plays an important role in space flights. Each electrical and electronic element requires strength satisfactory. If the spacecraft is near the sun, the solar cells used to produce this energy and charge the on-board batteries.
The generation of electricity is achieved with the electrical power to power conditioning system, which essentially corrects the power to create his right specification, the elimination of electrical noise, and then mounted distributed across the other categories. If the spacecraft a dark area where the sunlight is not available has been reached, the battery is switched on by the lead for the spacecraft elements.
Drive
It is not necessary that all the spacecraft will have a drive sub-system. This would be the purpose of the mission from the vehicle, for example, the spacecraft requires height and tilt adjustments to this sub-system would include.
For each pulse Management maneuver a space ship the drive sub-system is also required. The various elements of a propulsion subsystem include fuel, tank, valves, pipes and nozzles.
Apart from the above that a space vehicle subsystems, such as the communication system, pyrotechnic control, temperature control, computer, software and structure and mechanisms.
