Detailed explanation-1: -Uncrewed spacecraft are called satellites when they operate in Earth orbit and space probes when launched on a trajectory away from the Earth toward other bodies or into deep space.
Detailed explanation-2: -Most objects in space are too far away for astronauts to visit. Scientists and engineers have developed uncrewed technologies to gather information about those objects. These technologies include space telescopes, probes, orbiters, landers, and rovers.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer. Examples of each type of space probe include Voyager 2 (interplanetary), Magellan (orbiter), and Pathfinder (lander).
Detailed explanation-4: -Other well known landers The Cassini-Huygens project involved launching a lander (Huygens) to Titan from the orbiter Cassini. Huygens beamed back images from its descent by parachute and the surface. The Mars Exploration Rovers were two landers that were designed to be mobile and travel around the planet.
Detailed explanation-5: -Examples of such efforts include the development of the Curiosity Mars rover, the Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn and its moons, and the development of major space-based astronomical observatories such as the Hubble Space Telescope.
