Space Exploration: now, the farthest point far away from earth which the human was on the moon, although we continually want to learn more. A trip by a human to the other planet would take way longer. This is the reason; we have sent satellites, telescopes and the other spacecraft in space. Each of these spacecraft continually sends data back to earth. Here, all we have to think regarding to presenting that data so this makes sense. It is where computer animation comes in. This can demonstrate an incredible amount of data visually, in that way humans perceive it the better.

Many of the data sent from spacecraft can be input in a computer that will in turn produce an awesome looking animation hence one may actually navigate, explore and notice the distant worlds as if, we were in fact there.

Computer animation can also be utilized to design satellites and the other spacecraft more proficiently. The other possible use of computer animation is to plan the routes of future ships to ensure there is nothing wrong along with the path and hence a ship can gather the most data possible. 

 Note: The usage of computer animation is not limited to only these fields; this is a creative method and has enormous applications in a broad range of fields.
