  7. Write in Your Notebook Through Space Exploration we have: • Landed probes on Mars and Venus and sent probes past Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus • Built an International Space Station • Built a Hubble Telescope

  8. Write in Your Notebook • Space Probes: • Spacecraft that travels and drops into a planet’s atmosphere • Has no astronauts onboard • Collects scientific information and sends it back to scientists on Earth

  9. Space Probes Today • NASA's Voyager 1: 1st human-made object to travel beyond the solar system • 36-years-old • About 12 billion miles from our sun.

  23. 3. Spitzer Space Telescope

  24. NASA’s Fleet of “Great Observatories” • Chandra X-ray Observatory

  25. Info about Chandra The X-ray Observatory • Chandra allows scientists from around the world to obtain X-ray images of exotic environments to help understand the structure and evolution of the universe.

  26. 4. De-orbited Compton Gamma Ray Observatory

  27. Space Probes over Time • Sputnik 1: 1st probe to go into space. It was launched on Oct. 4, 1957, by the former Soviet Union. • Explorer 1: Jan. 31, 1958, the United States sent a probe into space. These first probes studied Earth from space. They also learned what it's like to be in space. • This was the beginning of the Space Race between the United States and Soviet Union.
