What is the name of one of NASA's space missions?
I am not sure if by "space mission" You mean a mission to a distant object or into deep space or manned or unmanned. Voyager I and II are unmanned deep space missions, both launched in 1977. More than thirty years later they are both still running (as of today: March 10, 2010). The unmanned Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit and Opportunity were rover launched to Mars in 2004. Opportunity is still running fine but Spirit is stationary because two of its six main wheels have stalled. The Apollo Missions were manned moon missions in the nineteen-sixties and seventies. They were also very successful.
Why didn't NASA send astronauts to Mars instead of the unmanned 'Pathfinder' discovery mission?
Sending human beings to Mars is substantially more dangerous and expensive than sending an unmanned shuttle. It would take many days for astronauts to reach the red planet, and large quantities of supplies would need to be sent with them for them to survive the journey and to spend enough time on Mars to collect useful data and samples.
