what it is?\ni need to find information about space probes
132677
Actually what most what I'm seeing defined here is satilites, which are put into orbit around Earth, space probes are things send to explore other planets, sor ystems.  There the Voyager series, which was sent into deep space to try to attract intellegent life.  The best place for US probes would be NASA.gov, since they are the gov't body that is in charge, there's also europa.eu.int (which is the EU's body), www.nasda.go.jp (japan's), as for Russia's agency, I don't remember what it was called or is called now.  There is not as yet any private space probes that I know of, though if anyone differs, I'm interested in that as well.

The information that comes from this probe is helping to confirm what is believed to be the origins of the universe and the Big Bang Theory.\n\nThe WMAP mission reveals conditions as they existed in the early universe by measuring the properties of the cosmic microwave background radiation over the full sky.\n\nThis microwave radiation was released approximately 380,000 years after the birth of the universe. WMAP creates a picture of the microwave radiation using temperature difference measured from opposite directions (anisotropy).

SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) is a project which has been running for the last 50 years or so, analyzing radio signals received on Earth from space.  There are various institutes which have been set up, and which work together to do so.  A lot of the founding work put into this was done by Frank Drake, simply to check for extra-terrestrial intelligence.  The aim of the project contains as such, attempting to decode radio signals received at Earth.  If you want to participate, you could check out the SETI@HOME site (http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/) which runs on your PC when you are not busy with it, and attempts to decode signals received and sends the results back to them.\n\nAlthough at least one highly interesting signal has been received (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wow%21_signal), it has never been repeated and most scientists believe this was probably a fluke.

Spacecraft Lifetime \n     \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n The two Voyager spacecraft continue to operate, with some loss in subsystem redundancy, but still capable of returning science data from a full complement of VIM science instruments. Both spacecraft also have adequate electrical power and attitude control propellant to continue operating until around 2020 when the available electrical power will no longer support science instrument operation. At this time science data return and spacecraft operations will end. \n\nSpacecraft electrical power is supplied by Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators (RTGs) that provided approximately 470 w of 30 volt DC power at launch. Due to the natural radioactive decay of the Plutonium fuel source, the electrical energy provided by the RTGs is continually declining. At the beginning of 2001, the power generated by Voyager 1 had dropped to 315 w and to 319 w for Voyager 2. Both of these power levels represent better performance than the pre-launch predictions, which included a conservative degradation model for the bi-metallic thermocouples used to convert thermal energy into electrical energy. As the electrical power becomes less and less, power loads on the spacecraft must be turned off in order to avoid having demand exceed supply. As loads are turned off spacecraft capabilities are eliminated. The following table identifies the year when specific capabilities will end as a result of the available electrical power limitations. \n\n  VOYAGER 1 VOYAGER 2 \nTerminate scan platform and UV observations 2003 1998-316 \nTermination of gyro operations ~2011 ~2010 \nTermination of DTR operations ~2010* ~2012* \nInitiate instrument power sharing ~2018 ~2016 \nCan no longer power any single instrument  No earlier than 2020 No earlier than 2020 \n\n* Limited by ability to capture 1.4 kbps data using a 70m/34m antenna array \nIn order to maximize the duration of the fields and particles data acquisition capability, the first spacecraft loads to be turned off are instrument heaters on the scan platform. As these heaters are turned off the UVS, which is mounted on the scan platform, cools down until the point is reached when it can no longer function. \n\nTermination of gyro operations ends the capability to calibrate the magnetometer instrument with magnetometer roll maneuvers (MAGROLs). These maneuvers are performed 6 times a year, on each spacecraft, and consist of a spacecraft attitude maneuver of 10 successive 360 degree turns about the roll axis. Data from a MAGROL allow the spacecraft magnetic field to be determined and subtracted from the magnetometer science data. This is important since the spacecraft magnetic field is larger than as the solar magnetic field being measured. The termination of gyro operations also means an end to the attitude maneuvers used to check the combined calibration of the Sun Sensor and the High Gain Antenna pointing direction for maintaining communications with the ground. \n\nInstrument power sharing limits the number of science instruments that can be on at any given time. This instrument power sharing will continue until the available power will no longer support any instrument operation. At that time the Voyager Interstellar Mission will end.

The scientist in charge of this project were taking extra care with picture preparation. Go to the site and you will see that around May 17th I think we can start looking for the particles from space.\nSee link below for Stardust at Home

Space exploration is the physical exploration of outer space. The politics, science, and engineering behind space flight all fall under the auspices of space exploration. There are many rationales behind space exploration; among the most common are ones focusing on scientific research or the future survival of humanity. This endeavour has been to some degree a dream and goal of humanity for the past several centuries, but it was not until the development of large liquid-fueled rocket engines during the early 20th century that it really began to be seriously developed.\n\nThe first major milestone of this endeavour was the launch of the USSR's Sputnik 1 on October 5, 1957, the first man-made object to orbit the Earth. After this event, the USA declared itself to be in a space race with the Soviet Union. Major achievements of the first era of space exploration (which lasted until 1969) were putting the first man in space, (Yuri Gagarin aboard Vostok 1) on April 12, 1961 (again by the USSR), the first spacewalk (by Alexei Leonov, also a Soviet cosmonaut) in 1965, and the first Moon landing by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin aboard Apollo 11 on July 20, 1969 (by the USA). The next notable achivement in space was the launch of first space station, Salyut 1, from the USSR. After the first 20 years of exploration, focus began shifting from one-off flights to renewable hardware, such as the Space Shuttle, and from competition to cooperation as on the International Space Station. Recently, private interests have begun pushing space tourism, while larger government programs have been advocating a return to the Moon and possibly missions to Mars in the near future.

hi louise try this http://www-istp.gsfc.nasa.gov/stargaze/Strig3.htm, if not just use a search engine such as google or yahoo. hope this helps

do a web search for forums in regards to something that you are interested in ....\n\ni.e. "forums golf"; "forums space exploration" ... using whatever your interests are or what you are looking for specifically.\n\nYour question is too broad to answer more specifically.\n\ngood luck
