Has a space probe been to Jupiter?
Yes, the Galileo spacecraft sent a probe down into the atmosphere of Jupiter in 1995.
Did a robot ever land on Jupiter?
No. Nothing can land on Jupiter as it does not have a solid surface. The Galileo spacecraft orbited Jupiter from 1995 until 2002. In 1995 an atmospheric probe with the Galileo mission entered Jupiter's atmosphere to study it. The probe eventually melted as it entered the superheated layers deep in Jupiter's atmosphere. In 2002 the main Galileo space probe burned up in Jupiter's atmosphere at the end of its mission.
Is there a synonym for atmosphere probe?
Atmospheric probe is a commonly used term, and there are no widely recognized synonyms for it. However, you could use terms like atmospheric sensor or atmospheric instrument to refer to similar devices used for studying the atmosphere.
What is an atmosphere probe?
An atmosphere probe is a spacecraft or instrument designed to study the atmospheric conditions of a planet or moon. It is typically launched into space and sent to the target celestial body to collect data such as temperature, pressure, composition, and other relevant atmospheric properties.
How would the size of parachute required on a space probe to allow it to land safely on a planet such as venus which has a thick atmosphere?
It would need to have a small parachute for a planet such as venus, because the atmospheric pressure is about 90 times that on Earth. This increases air resistance (drag) slowing the probe down. Therefore, the small parachute allows the probe to have more acceleration.
What did the Galileo drop the probe into?
Galileo plunged into Jupiter's crushing atmosphere on Sept. 21, 2003. The spacecraft was deliberately destroyed to protect one of its own discoveries - a possible ocean beneath the icy crust of the moon Europa. Galileo changed the way we look at our solar system. The spacecraft was the first to fly past an asteroid and the first to discover a moon of an asteroid. It provided the only direct observations of a comet colliding with a planet. Galileo was the first to measure Jupiter's atmosphere with a descent probe and the first to conduct long-term observations of the Jovian system from orbit. It found evidence of subsurface saltwater on Europa, Ganymede and Callisto and revealed the intensity of volcanic activity on Io. see related link
What has the author Suzanne Probe written?
Suzanne Probe has written: 'J.F. Kernan, American illustrator' -- subject(s): Exhibitions
What is Mariner 5?
Was a spacecraft of the Mariner program that carried a complement of experiments to probe Venus' atmosphere by radio occulation.
Were there any missions launched to Saturn?
Yes there were many missions launched to Saturn. One of the first missions had a probe sent to space and see what the surface was made of and the probe was crushed with the extremely dense atmosphere
Has nasa sent a probe or satellite to the sun?
Yes, the Parker Solar Probe was launched August 12, 2018.
If a space probe has a speed of 2 x 10 to the 4 m per s as it leaves the earth's atmosphere what is its speed when it is very far from the earth?
The speed of the space probe will remain constant in the vacuum of space unless acted upon by an external force, as per Newton's first law of motion. Therefore, its speed will remain 2 x 10^4 m/s when it is far from Earth.
