Satelite docking in a space ship

Satellite docking refers to the process by which a space ship connects with and attaches to an orbiting satellite. This maneuver requires precise coordination of the spacecraft's thrusters, sensors, and docking mechanisms to establish a secure physical and electrical connection between the two objects. Successful satellite docking enables various tasks, such as refueling, maintenance, payload deployment, and data transfer, to be carried out while in space. It's a complex operation that demands meticulous planning and execution to ensure the safety and functionality of both the space ship and the satellite.
