SpaceProbe
type: Class
same as: SpaceProbe.n3
pref label: These are unmanned vehicles which are sent to other bodies in the Solar system for the purpose gathering data. Sometimes a separate vehicle (probe or lander) is launched from the main vehicle, the smaller vehicle usually being referred to as a probe. In these cases, both vehicle would be SpaceProbes in the present sense.
