Abstract

Interplanetary missions have always been a field of interest for humans. We have always wanted to explore why life exists the way it does on our planet and not on other neighboring planets. We ponder upon questions like: “Did the other planets have life earlier?” or “Will we able to thrive on other planets?” To try to answer these questions, we must be able to study the planet’s conditions.Currently, there has been a great demand for space missions and also a need to make these missions affordable, efficient and safe. Venus, our sister planet, has many mysteries that need to be unveiled. By understanding the conditions of planets like Venus, we could figure out what makes Earth a haven for human
life.In this project, we have designed a propulsion system, for a spacecraft, that would take a payload from Earth’s orbit (400km from surface) to a desired orbit around Venus.
