Best Answer

If the space probe is approaching the sun and is always facing the sun, then the probe sun-ward side should be very warm; but overall the probe will be at the same or close to it's internal temperature (unless it doesn't have insulation; in which case it will be about 3 degrees Kelvin - which is the actual temperature of space.)

As space probe is carried into space using rockets and afterward can maneuver using thrusters, sometimes gaining speed using the gravity of a planet.
