Students watch a video about space probes and discuss the function of space probes. They use a photo gallery to compare and contrast different structures and equipment of probes, and make connections between the different structures and purposes of space probes. Then students use an interactive diagram of the Cassini space probe to imagine what instruments they might include on a probe of their own design.

Voyager 1 and its twin, Voyager 2, are the only man-made objects that have ventured beyond the solar system. Here’s a look at the pioneering frontrunner, which has achieved some incredible feats along the way.
