we see only the lights of
its cargo bay in the darkness.
But we can't see the harmful cosmic
radiation that is everywhere here.
High-energy charged particles ...
are streaming out from
the Sun and other stars.
On Earth, we are protected
by the atmosphere ...
and the surrounding
magnetic field.
In space, the radiation can
penetrate the walls of our craft.
A Japanese x-ray satellite reveals
erupting from the Sun.
On interplanetary trips ...
we'll have to retreat to
heavily shielded onboard shelters ...
whenever solar storms are sighted.
Most of the planets are too
hostile for people to visit.
But that doesn't stop us
from exploring them.
Okay, understand. We have a go
for deploy, so we're starting out.
Five, four, three ...
two, one, mark.
- Do we have motion?
- I see motion.
It's stable? It's clear of the ASE.
Where humans cannot safely go ...
we send remotely controlled
robot explorers.
Commanding them from Earth ...
we use their electronic eyes and sensors
to explore the alien landscape.
In 1989, the Galileo spacecraft ...
began a five-year journey to Jupiter ...
the largest planet
in our solar system.
Galileo just kind of dissolves
out into nothingness ...
as it goes into the
darkness of space.
And that's the last we saw of it.
sent back to Earth in 1979 ...
by two robot probes named Voyager.
This was our first opportunity
to marvel at its Great Red Spot ...
three times the size of Earth.
The molecular building
blocks for life ...
may be swirling within Jupiter's
turbulent atmosphere.
If Galileo's probe confirms this ...
we should gain new insights
into the origins of life.
Though it is our nearest planetary
neighbor, Venus was always a mystery.
our view of its surface.
Then we sent a spacecraft
named Magellan to orbit the planet.
through the clouds.
Magellan collected so much data ...
that we can now explore the surface
as if we were actually there.
We begin 60,000 feet up.
To help scientists
recognize its features ...
a computer has exaggerated the
height of the terrain 10 times.
Perhaps these pancake domes ...
were caused by lava pushing through
weak spots in the surface.
These craters, some the
size of Connecticut ...
were made by collisions
with comets and asteroids.
On Earth, ancient craters like these
have been eroded by wind and water.
But there is little
wind and no water here.
Venus swelters beneath a thick
atmosphere of carbon dioxide ...
which acts like a greenhouse:
It allows sunlight to filter in,
but then traps the heat inside.
The surface temperature
