Engineers teach spacecraft to 'dream' their way to the space station
Engineers have successfully developed a system that allows spacecraft to autonomously navigate and dock with the International Space Station. The docking process is extremely challenging due to orbital mechanics, which require precise calculations to avoid collisions. The new system uses artificial intelligence to help spacecraft adjust their trajectory.
Why it's good news: It shows how innovative technology can make complex space missions safer and more efficient.
