Quite simply, this is any space vehicle that does not have a live crew of humans or animals on board. All communications, military and meteorological machines that are orbiting the Earth are unmanned satellites, as are the probes that we have sent to other planets in our Solar System.
There have been many space probes to Venus. Here are a few important ones: * Mariner 10 (NASA) * The Venera series of probes (Roscosmos) * Magellan (NASA) * Venus Express (ESA) (check related link)
You can get these at some craft stores. It might also be a good idea to find some online and have them sent to you.
The USSR (Russia).
A satellite.
NASA has sent several unmanned space probes to Saturn, but no manned missions.
Yes, NASA has sent a couple of unmanned probes to examine Mercury, Mariner 10 which did a flyby and the MESSENGER orbiter.
normally they are unmanned but sometimes they do have people sent up
NASA sent it by remote control space ship.
A space probe is an unmanned spacecraft sent into space.
Unmanned space probes have been sent to various destinations in our solar system, including Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. They have also traveled beyond our solar system to study interstellar space.
The most obvious answer to your question is the fact that people have to return to earth, while an unmanned craft can stay in space infinitely. Manned spacecraft require things like oxygen, water, food and communications equipment, none of which are required by an unmanned spacecraft. That means unmanned spacecrafts can be sent into space for a fraction of the cost of a manned spacecraft. So basically, it's much cheaper and safer to send unmanned spacecrafts to explore the universe.
Yes, NASA has sent several rovers to Mars, such as the Curiosity and Perseverance rovers, to study the planet's surface and gather data. Additionally, NASA has plans to send crewed missions to Mars in the future as part of its Mars exploration program.
The last Space Shuttle to go into space and to the Space Station was Endeavour
The Mariner 2 space craft was sent to Venus.
It named Terra.
The first laptop was sent into space with Nasa.
