How is 3D Modeling Shaping Modern Spacecraft Design and Testing?

I've noticed that 3D modeling has become an essential tool in spacecraft design and testing. From prototyping to stress analysis, these models seem to help engineers visualize and refine designs before physical builds. How exactly is 3D modeling integrated into the design process, and what advantages does it offer over traditional methods?

It gives a better trial and error setup than building one and hoping all goes well. We can measure the conditions wherever it is that we’re wanting to go to, and then run more precise simulations to see where the flaws are in that design and plan. It gives a better understanding and a higher probability of success.

I agree. It gives companies the option to simulate certain conditions without having to waste expenditure and time trying to conduct that test in the real world. They can control all of that with 3D modelling.
