FEATURES | - Robotic Space Probes have opened a whole new frontier for Mankind. We follow the construction, journey, and eventual arrival of the two biggest Probe missions ever to be launched into our heavens:
- The Mars Exploration Rovers and Cassini Huygens which traveled across our vast solar system to the ringed planet Saturn and its mysterious moon Titan. Both reached their destinations in 2004.
- We discover how some probes are built to just fly great distances past planets and moons collecting data, some are designed to orbit like giant satellites, and some are programmed to actually land and probe the surface and atmosphere of another planet.
