Most Space Probes never come back, the Space Probe Voyager 1 has traveled so far that it is out of our solar system. It was launched in the 1970s.
It orbits at 569 km above Earth.
Approximately 170,221,694,400,000 miles !
Voyager II is the first successful space probe that reached the outer planets or Jovian Planets. It is in the rule of probes that they should not reach the outer planets because it is too far and their probes might malfunction. But this Voyager II probe had a successful flight to the outer planets.
No, because it is a gas giant and uninhabitable.

There is no active galaxy that is effective in the intergalactic space probes. No space probe has ever traveled as far as the next nearest star outside of our solar system.
yes they can depends where they come from
It helps you look far into space. :)
Since we can't get human beings past the moon, we need space probes to explore past the moon. We don't have the technology and fuel to build a rocket that travels that far.
Far more expensive and far less productive.
Technology has improved in many ways. Telescopes, Space probes and space shuttle along with many other things help us get a better knowledge of space. More powerful telescopes let us see things very far from earth. Good space probes go more far out in space and are able to learn more about space. Space shuttles do the same thing as space probes but only have humans
The only probe that has reached Neptune so far was Voyager 2.
So far 8 space probes have been to Jupiter: The first one was Pioneer 10 in 1973, followed by Pioneer 11 in 1974, Voyagers 1 and 2 in 1979, Ulysses in 1992, Galileo in 1995, Cassini in 2000, and New Horizons in 2007. Further probes planned are the Juno space probe, due to launch sometime in 2011, and the Europa Jupiter System Mission, planned for 2020.
It orbits at 569 km above Earth.
the inventor of space travel!!!!! He pioneered many of the space navigation techniques used to send probes and spacecraft to far-off celestial bodies.
So far, all probes that went to other planets were robotic devices: Pioneer, Voyager, the devices that landed on Mars, etc.
