So far only one spacecraft has ever flown by Neptune and that was Voyager II in 1989. Neptune is extremely far away from the Sun, and getting there would be highly expensive and take many years to get there, so it doesn't look likely we'll be getting any more Neptune probes soon.

How many satellites probes have been to neptune?
The Voyager I and the Voyager II are the only space probes to visit Neptune. They landed in the 1980s.
Have you sent satellites or landers to neptune?
Not exactly. The Voyager 2 space probe did a flyby of Neptune, but since it never actually orbited the planet, it can't be considered a satellite. Neptune does not have a solid surface, so nothing could ever land on it.
What evidence is there that Neptune exists?
It can be seen and weighed (it has a satellite) and visited (a probe went by).
Has anyone ever been on Neptune?
The Voyager 2 space probe did a flyby of Neptune on August 25th 1985, beaming back images and data to Earth. Nothing can land on Neptune because it is a gas giant. Gas giants do not have a solid surface.
Could a human land on Neptune?
It may be possible in the future, but today we are not able to travel that far.
Where was the voyager 2 made before they landed it on Neptune?
Voyager 2 did not land on Neptune, it made a flyby.
Did any space missions visit Neptune did they land or just fly by which ones?
Only one space probe went to or flew by Neptune which was Voyager 2.
Who invented the first space probe?
The first space probe was the Luna I by the United Soviet Socialist Republic. It did a flyby of the moon in 1959
What did the voyager 2 discover about Neptune?
Voyager 2 was never on Neptune, but rather did a close flyby. During this flyby, Voyager 2 studied Neptune's atmosphere and the planet's largest Moon, Triton. It also discovered 6 new moons orbiting the planet.
What is a flyby space probe?
It is a telescope placed in space (like the hubble telescope). When placed in space the telescope does not have to "look" through the earth's atmosphere so its images are not destorted.
Has Pluto ever been explored by a spacecraft or fly by?
No, but a space probe called New Horizons is on its way for a flyby.
Have any satellites or robots explored neptune?
Yes or else how would we know anything about it
