What space probe has taken pictures mercury and in what year?
the pictures was found in 1994 where the space probe was found by: bob marly
What is the difference between crewed and uncrewed space missions?
Space exploration is where a group of astronauts go into space and explore. A space probe is a machine which is launched into space, transmitts pictures, data and other information - A space probe does not return home.
Will the Hubble Space Telescope capture an image of 100 billion galaxies in the universe into one picture?
The Hubble Space Telescope is a space telescope that was carried into orbit by a Space Shuttle in 1990 and remains in operation. Although it has taken photos from other galaxies, it does not have the capability of capturing a single image of 100 billion galaxies on one photo.
Are there any photos of the dark side of the moon?
"Dark side of the moon" isn't actually dark. The more accurate term is "far side of the moon". Both sides of the moon receive an equal amount of sunlight, per month. There are indeed a lot of photos taken of the far side. The first-ever photo of the far side of the moon was captured by the Luna 3 probe in 1959. All Apollo missions from Apollo 11 to 17 passed behind the moon, and they took photos of the far side. The attached photo is from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
Is the moon inhabited by aliens?
Yes it is. NASA photos of the moon landing, all taken by the astronauts themselves, show multiple space craft on the surface of the moon. They were told by the alien life forms not to come back to the moon, and strangely enough they have not.

Which space probe has taken photos and in what year?
Many have done so for several years
What space probe has taken photos of mercury in what year?
Mariner 10 and MESSENGER have been the only probes to investigate Mercury. mariner 10 was launched 21.45 PST on November 2, 1973. It observed the atmosphere, surface, and physical characteristics of Mercury and Venus. MESSENGER was launched on August 3, 2004. It went into orbit around Mercury, it collected enough data to produce 95% of it's surface.
What year did we get the first satellite pictures of the planet Mercury?
The first pictures were taken by NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft in 2011.http://www.space.com/11952-latest-photos-mercury-nasa-messenger-probe-part2.html
What carries a space probe in space?
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.
What is the name of a photo taken from space?
One common term for such photos is a "satellite photograph" but this usually refers to photos of earth taken from satellites. There can be other terms depending on what or who is taking the photo and what the photo is of.
Is it legal for someone take photos of your car without permission?
If the photo is taken from a public space - yes
What does the surface of Mercury look like?
NASA released today new hi-resolution photos of Mercury showing a previously unseen side of the planet. They are the first images of the planet closest to the sun taken in more than 30 years.The satellite MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging probe), launched in 2004, nabbed hundreds of photos during its second fly-by on Oct. 6. Scientists hope the probe will swing into orbit around the scorching planet by March 2011, making it the first spacecraft ever to do so. The satellite is equipped with the Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS). From NASA: "This instrument consists of wide-angle and narrow-angle imagers that will map landforms, track variations in surface spectra and gather topographic information. A pivot platform will help point it in whatever direction the scientists choose. The two instruments will enable MESSENGER to 'see' much like our two eyes do." In a pioneering display of digitally transmitted photography, the Mariner 10 satellite took dozens of photos of Mercury during three fly-bys in the 1970s and sent them back to Earth. These recent photos taken by MESSENGER show many of the same craters scientists identified back then. The Mariner 10 is now orbiting the sun. The MESSENGER is expected to remain in orbit around Mercury for about a year. Below are a few samples. Like all images NASA releases, you are free to download these or photos directly from NASA's Web site.
Who took some famous earth photos?
Some of the most famous Earth photos are taken by NASA. Spectacular views of Earth from space, of the moon, and of the famous "Blue Marble" are those accredited to being taken by NASA.
How did scientists obtain a picture of the surface of the Earth?
Some probe satileitis have taken pictures from space and had sent the data back 2 earth
Which space probe took pictures on mercury?
Mercury was visited by the NASA probe Mariner 10, which was launched on November 3, 1973, and made fly-by passes of the planets Venus and Mercury. The probe passed by Mercury three times : March 29, 1974 at a distance of 703 km, September 21, 1974 at 48069 km, and March 16, 1975 at 327 km. Mercury is currently being photographed and studied by the unmanned MESSENGER space probe, launched in 2004. After making three preliminary passes of the planet, it began orbiting Mercury in March, 2011.
What are the names of the space missions that have observed Neptune?
Only one space probe has ever visited Neptune, and that's Voyager 2, which flew past in 1989. However, I suppose you could add the Hubble Space Telescope to the list too, since even though it orbits Earth it is a space mission and has taken photos of Neptune that are far clearer than any we can obtain from the ground - nothing approaching the quality of Voyager 2's pictures, though.
