By sending a probe to other planets we get amazing pictures how what they look like close up.

Other sensors on the probe can find out about the magnetic field and the surface temperature, and chemicals in the atmosphere, and find out details of the moons and rings of the outer planets.

How many natural and artificial satellites does Venus have?

Venus has no natural satellites. It does have two artificial satellites (space probes). Venus is one of the two planets in our solar system (together with Mercury) that have no moon/natural satellite.


How do you study the planets?

To study the planets, scientists use a combination of telescopes, space probes, satellites, and computer simulations. They analyze the planets' composition, atmosphere, magnetic fields, surface features, and more to understand their properties and formation. Additionally, studying meteorites that have come from these planets provides valuable information.


What kind of space tool has provided us with the most information about other planets?

Robotic space probes have provided us with the most information about other planets. These probes can fly by, orbit, or land on other planets to gather data and images, allowing scientists to study the composition, atmosphere, and geology of these worlds in detail. Examples include missions from agencies like NASA and ESA.


What are the probes called which can drive on planets?

The probes that can drive on planets are called rovers. NASA's Mars rovers, for example, are designed to explore the surface of Mars by traveling across the terrain and conducting various scientific experiments.


Does Saturn have any artificial satellites?

A natural satellite is a moon. Saturn has sixty-two known moons, fifty-three of which actually have official names. There are hundreds of smaller objects that make up Saturn's rings. Saturn's moon Titan is larger than the planet Mercury, and is the second largest moon in the solar system.

The probes or satellites on that have been sent to your plant a is?

Planetary probes and satellites are typically sent to planets in our solar system to gather data and study their physical characteristics, atmosphere, and geological features. They are equipped with various instruments such as cameras, spectrometers, and sensors to collect information that can help scientists better understand the planet's composition and environment. These missions are important for advancing our knowledge of the planets and their potential for supporting life or providing insights into planetary formation and evolution.

What kinds of astronomical bodies are found in the solar system?

In the solar system, we have a star, planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, meteors, and human debris. (such as old satellites, probes, etc.)


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.


What kind of satellites is there on Saturn?

space probes


What probe has been sent into space?

There have been many probes sent into space by different space agencies, such as NASA's Voyager probes, the Mars rovers like Curiosity and Perseverance, and the ESA's Rosetta probe. Each probe is designed for specific missions, such as studying distant planets, asteroids, or comets, and expanding our understanding of the universe.


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 are bodies that orbit moons or planets called?

Satellites. They can be natural (a moon) or artificial (space probes). Earth is a satellite of the Sun, the Moon is a satellite of the Earth and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter is a satellite of the Moon.


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.
