Can a space probe have an engine?
Yes, and many do depending on what they are for. If the probe is just being placed in earth orbit and is intended to stay if that orbit without moving then it needs no engine and won't have one. The Hubble Space Telescope is a good example. If the probe is intended to change its orbit around the earth, or if it is intended to leave earth orbit and go elswehere in the solar system, then it will need engines for that purpose and will have them.
Did Venus have any robots or satellites explore it?
Oh, dude, Venus has had a few visitors! There have been multiple missions by NASA and other space agencies that have sent probes and landers to explore Venus. The Soviet Union even landed a few spacecraft on Venus back in the day. So, yeah, Venus has definitely had some robotic guests over the years.
What was the destination of the space probe viking 1 and 2?
The destination of the space probes Viking 1 and 2 was Mars. They were designed to land on the surface of Mars and conduct various experiments to search for signs of past or present life on the planet.
Did space probe go on mercury?
Yes, space probes have visited Mercury. NASA's MESSENGER mission orbited Mercury from 2011 to 2015, providing valuable data about the planet's surface, composition, and magnetic field. Additionally, the European Space Agency's BepiColombo mission launched in 2018, which is a joint mission with Japan's JAXA, is currently en route to Mercury for a planned arrival in 2025.
Where did space probe Galileo go and what did it find?

What is the difference between a space probe and a satellite?
A space probe is a spacecraft sent to explore outer space beyond Earth's orbit, usually with a specific mission in mind such as planetary exploration. A satellite refers to any object placed into orbit around a larger body, like a planet or moon, for communication, navigation, or scientific purposes. In essence, a satellite can be a type of space probe, but not all satellites are probes.
What are the advantages of sending a space probe to take photos of a planet or moon?
pros. A computerized and minimally mechanized space probe would have only a small fraction of the needs and equipment of a human housing space ship. This would save on mass and therefore fuel. A mechanized probe has a lot less functioning parts therefore there is less that can go wrong with it. A mechanized space probe could survive the years that it take to get to its destination. Humans tend to get bored and psychotic.
How do you get to a planet on Poptropica?
you get in a space ship and go to a planet.
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.
What planet did the vigor space probe crash in to?
As far as we know, Vigor hasn't crashed into any planet. That's because it never existed - the story about it is an urban legend. In the story, it was intended to go to Venus, but due to a "small" programming error, it missed Venus entirely and "wandered off into space" - AWOL. No one knows where it is now. In reality, Vigor never existed. The story seems to be a confused version of the fate of the Mars Climate Orbiter, which did indeed crash into Mars due to a programming error.
