Spacecraft maneuver in space primarily by using thrusters that expel propellant in the opposite direction, following Newton's third law of motion. These thrusters can be small and used for precise adjustments or larger for significant changes in velocity and trajectory. Additionally, spacecraft can utilize gravitational assists from planets to alter their course without using much fuel. Attitude control systems, such as reaction wheels or gyroscopes, help maintain or change the spacecraft's orientation during maneuvers.
