Generally, a satellite orbits the Earth, while a space probe is sent to gather information beyond Earth orbit. However, probe can orbit the Earth (and therefore technically be a satellite) or go into orbit around another body (the Moon, Mars, etc.) and therefore also technically become a satellite of that body.

What did the mariner 9 do?
Mariner 9 was a NASA space probe that became the first spacecraft to orbit another planet when it entered orbit around Mars in 1971. It mapped 85% of the Martian surface, providing valuable data and images that revolutionized our understanding of the planet.
What spacecraft observed Mars?
A space probe is a scientific space exploration mission in which a robotic spacecraft leaves the gravity well of Earth and gathers information about other bodies. So a satellite is also a sapce probe. There are many such probes. The first probe was Mars1 Mars2 was the first probe to actually land on Mars. The other probes that have landed on Mars are Mars3, Mars6, Viking1, Viking2, Pathfinder, Spirit, Opportunity, Phoenix. Check the related link for a full list
