Description

Unmanned probes are hurling through the cosmos in record numbers. Traveling billion of miles from Earth, they are carrying out longer more complex missions then once ever imagined. These probes will spend years in orbit sending back data on the Sun, the planets and the organic compounds that formed our universe.

They owe much of this progress to one pioneering mission: The Deep Space Probes tests twelve new technologies which has never been used in deep space travel. It also captured the first image ever seen of the nucleus of a comet. NASA and the scientific community owe much of their future and recent success to this daring pioneer of space travel.
