The Russian space probe Mars 2 went to space in the year of 1973.
The first Mars space probe expeditions that did not land on Mars were the Mariner missions, specifically Mariner 4, Mariner 6, and Mariner 7. These missions provided the first close-up images of Mars and valuable data about the planet's environment.
No space has ever gone to mars. It would around 9 months to get there. A space probe has been sent to Mars and it was called Pathfinder.

The weight of a space probe on the surface of Mars would be less than on Earth due to Mars having lower gravity. Mars has about 38% of Earth's gravity, so a space probe that weighs 1000 lbs on Earth would only weigh about 380 lbs on the surface of Mars.
