A
spacecraft is made up of many individual systems
and
subsystems
that must all work together seamlessly. Space
systems engineers study the effects of each system
on the others to make conceptual and preliminary
design decisions.

discuss
each spacecraft system with emphasis on how they
all integrate together to form the whole space
vehicle. Brief scientific descriptions present
each topic and a multitude of textbook and Internet
references
are provided for further
study at all levels.
