Question
- match the type of unmanned space vehicle with the correct example.
- orbiters
- space probes
- landers/rovers
- artificial satellites
a. lunal
b. mars pathfinder
c. mars express
d. international space station
To solve this matching problem, we analyze each type of unmanned space vehicle and its corresponding example:
1. Orbiters
Orbiters are spacecraft that orbit a celestial body. Mars Express is an orbiter that orbits Mars. So, 1 (orbiters) matches with c (Mars Express).
2. Space Probes
Space probes are unmanned spacecraft sent to explore space. Luna 1 is a space probe (the first lunar probe). So, 2 (space probes) matches with a (Luna 1).
3. Landers/Rovers
Landers/rovers are designed to land on a celestial body and (for rovers) move across its surface. Mars Pathfinder included a lander and the rover Sojourner. So, 3 (landers/rovers) matches with b (Mars Pathfinder).
4. Artificial Satellites
Artificial satellites orbit Earth (or other bodies) for various purposes. The International Space Station (ISS) is a habitable artificial satellite (though manned, it is a type of artificial satellite; note: some sources classify ISS as a space station, but in the context of this problem, it is matched here). So, 4 (artificial satellites) matches with d (International Space Station).
