The Mars Spacecraft
Yes, many spacecraft have explored beyond Mars. For example, the Voyager probes have traveled beyond our solar system, while spacecraft like New Horizons have flown past Pluto. Additionally, the Parker Solar Probe is currently studying the Sun up close.
No, the Mars Pathfinder is not a satellite. It was a robotic spacecraft that landed on Mars in 1997 and deployed a rover called Sojourner to explore the surface of the planet. Pathfinder was designed to study the Martian surface and climate, as well as test new technologies for future missions.
There were a number of spacecraft that were sent to Mars including the Mars Odyssey and the Mars Express Orbiter. Most of the spacecraft that were designed to travel to Mars did not make the trip intact?
There are no current American manned spacecrafts flying today. Lockheed Martin is designing and testing the Orion spacecraft which will fly 4 astronauts into space. The first unmanned testflight is scheduled at the end of 2013. Orion is scheduled to fly the first men to the moon since 1972in 2019.
The only manned space craft is the international space station which is in earth orbit. There are countless earth-orbitting satellites, most of them are there for communication (telephones etc.). Notable artificial satellites are the Hubble Space Telescope and the Kepler Space Telescope. The Lunar Reconnassance Orbiter takes super-high resolution images of the moon, perhaps in preparation for future manned missions. Also there is the Chinese Chang'e 2 probe. As for other planets, we have the Venus Express orbiter around Venus and the MESSENGER spacecraft orbitting Mercury. On Mars there is the 2001 Mars Odyssey orbiter, Mars Express, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and Mars Global surveyor. In the asteroid belt there is the Dawn spacecraft and several others. There are no spacecraft orbitting Jupiter, the last one being Galileo which was sent to burn up in the Jovian atmosphere so the erase the possibility of contaminating the moon Europa, which may have sub-surface oceans with life. Saturn has one orbiter, the Cassini spacecraft which primarily studies Saturn's moons, particularly Titan and it dropped at landing probe called Huygens to it's surface in 2005. No spacecraft orbit Uranus or Neptune, but the New Horizons probe is heading towards Pluto and will arive in 2015. 4 probes are beyond that, Pioneer 10, Pioneer 11, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 which all observed the outer planets about 40 years ago. There are also numerous spacecraft that orbit the sun, but all of the major ones have been listed here.
The New Horizons spacecraft. It will reach Pluto July 14th 2015.

Currently no clear pictures if any dwarf planet exist, as none have been visited by a spacecraft. In 2015, however, the New Horizons spacecraft will fly by Pluto, and the Dawn spacecraft will enter orbit around Ceres.
None have yet been to Pluto. The New Horizons spacecraft it currently heading towards it but will not get there until 2015.
The only space probe to visit Pluto was the New Horizons spacecraft. It took 9 years to get there.

there was on her myspace but she took them down and i havent seen any since
Pluto will be visited by the spacecraft New Horizon in 2015

The name of the spacecraft is, rather anticlimactically, "New Horizons".
There are no current American manned spacecrafts flying today. Lockheed Martin is designing and testing the Orion spacecraft which will fly 4 astronauts into space. The first unmanned testflight is scheduled at the end of 2013. Orion is scheduled to fly the first men to the moon since 1972in 2019.
the galileo, however it was destroyed in 2003 and a new spacecraft will be sent out in 2011
