# Space Probes: Exploring Our Solar System

With teacher's guide

Uses animation, live photography, and models of spacecraft and instruments to tell the story of man's efforts to explore the outer regions of space from the lauching of Pioneer I in 1958 to the current program for gaining more information about the moon, the sun, and the solar system. Examines the problems involved in collecting and relaying the information from space probes and explains how such problems are being, or will be, solved in preparation for manned space expeditions
