Best Answer

As space probe is carried into space using rockets and afterward can maneuver using thrusters, sometimes gaining speed using the gravity of a planet. Once a space probe has been set on the right trajectory it does not have to do much; there is no air resistance to slow it down and gravity from the sun and planets is already taken into account.
