Newton's Second Law: The force applied to an object is proportional to its mass and its acceleration.
What this means is that any object, traveling in a straight line, at a constant speed, requires no force to maintain that motion. Most notably, in space, where there is no air resistance to slow the object down, no engines would be required to travel, except to change speed and course.

What is a scientific probe?
A probe is a spacecraft that travels through space to collect science information. ... Probes send data back to Earth for scientists to study. The First Probes. Sputnik 1 was the first probe to go into space.
Does light waves travel fastest through empty space?
Light waves, like all electromagnetic waves, travel without a medium, so they can travel through empty space. Sound waves, on the other hand, do require a medium to travel or propagate; therefore, they can not travel through empty space.
Space probes have visited or passed near every planet EXCEPT?
All but Pluto, which is currently being visited.
What are the panels the space probes wear called?
The panels on a space probe are called solar panels. Solar panels are panels that turn light into energy so astronauts and cosmonauts do not need to change the batteries. Not only do space probes have solar panels, some cars, houses, and all sorts of electronics can use solar panel. Solar panels do not pollute. This is why they use solar panels.
What is a cosmonault?
Same as an astronaut. A person trained by a space program to travel into space as a crew member of the space program.
What do space probes travel away from?
The Earth.
What does space probes do?
it gathers information about space without a crew
How fast do space probes travel when launched from Earth?
My answer is that space probes go 5,075 mph, when launched from Earth. Hope I helped you find your answer.
What can space prob do?
Space probes have the ability to gather information about space without a crew
Is it possible to travel to titan?
Manned space travel to Titan is not yet feasible, but probes have been there already.
Are space probes piloted or unpiloted why would they be that way?
Space probes are not piloted. Probes are launched to places that are months or years away in travel time. A pilot would require too much food, air, and water.
What is safer space probes or manned space flights?
Space probes would be safer.
Why do scientists send unmanned space probes to outer space?
it is so very dangerous to travel if it is not tested by the scientist
Do space probes carry humans and how many?
No, space probes are unmanned spacecraft designed to explore space without carrying humans. They are controlled remotely from Earth by scientists and engineers.
What are advantages and disadvantages of sending crews to space on space explorations and space probes?
pros: We can learn lots of things by sending crews and space probes. For without space probes how would we be able to tell the weather. cons: Many humans can die in space if there is a problem with the space craft and billions of dollars will be wasted.
How do space probes aid in space?
How do space probes aid in space exploration
How can knowledge of the planets of the Solar System be obtained without space probes?
Without space probes, the only knowledge we have of the solar system comes from ground-based telescopes. That's how we did it for 300 years before satellites.
