How are satellites space shuttles and space probes used to explore space?

Satelites in space are used for examining the solar system.There are cameras in the satelites.The satelites can take pictures and we can observe what is in the solar system.Space probes are used for the same thing.Nasa puts space probes onto some planets and see what is on it. I Hope this helps :) no, a satellite is controlled from the earth to signal the satellite in space


What was the challenger going to do in outer space?

The Challenger was part of NASA's space shuttle program and its mission was to carry out a variety of activities in outer space, such as deploying satellites, conducting experiments, and performing scientific research. Its missions varied from repairing satellites to launching probes.


What is the instruments and procedure in gathering information about outer space?

Instruments like telescopes, satellites, and space probes are used to gather information about outer space. Telescopes observe distant celestial objects, satellites orbit Earth to study our planet and beyond, and space probes travel to explore other planets, moons, and asteroids. Data collected from these instruments is then analyzed by scientists to better understand the universe.


What are the roles of space shuttles and space stations and what features do space probes have in common?

NASA has used space shuttles to perform many important tasks. These include taking satellites into orbit, repairing damaged satellites, and carrying astronauts and equipment to and from space stations. A space station provides a place where long-term observations and experiments can be carried out in space. Each space probe has a power system to produce electricity, a communication system to send and receive signals, and scientific instruments to collect data and perform experiments.
