SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -Lander spacecraft are designed to reach the surface of a planet and survive long enough to telemeter data back to Earth.

Detailed explanation-2: -One of the most famous probes is Voyager 1. It has traveled further in space than any human-made object. It launched into space in 1977. Voyager 1 flew past Jupiter and Saturn and then headed for the edge of our solar system.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer. Interplanetary probes fly by celestial bodies. Orbiters are placed in orbit around a celestial body. Landers land on the surface of a celestial body.

Detailed explanation-4: -A space probe is an unpiloted, unmanned device sent to explore space and gather scientific information.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are three different types of space probes. There are lunar (moon) probes, solar (sun) probes, and probes that investigate the rocky surfaces on planets, or the gases on gaseous planets. They all have different missions.

Detailed explanation-6: -Space probes contain instruments to collect data and travel out of Earth’s orbit to explore places that would be too dangerous for astronomers; the instruments that a probe contains depends upon the space mission.

Detailed explanation-7: -’BUS’ Housing Electronics. Cosmic Ray Subsystem (CRS) Magnetometer (MAG) Photopolarimeter Subsystem (PPS) Plasma Science (PLS) Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators (RTG)
