Përmbledhja	A gravity assist (or swing-by) maneuver uses the gravitational field of a planet or other celestial body to alter a spacecraft's trajectory and velocity without expending fuel. Discovered by Michael Minovitch at JPL in 1961, this technique is crucial for reaching distant planets economically. It works by exploiting the relative motion between the spacecraft, the assisting body, and the Sun.	N-body simulation is a computational method for modeling the dynamics of a system of particles under mutual gravitational forces. Originating from Newton's laws of motion and gravitation, it solves the fundamental equations of celestial mechanics. This technique is essential for understanding planetary orbits, star cluster evolution, and cosmological structure formation.
