TYPES OF SPACE EXPLORATION DRONES Scientists use three types of drones to collect information about the Martian surface: orbiters, landers, and rovers. As their name suggests, orbiters orbit the planet but never land on it. As they orbit, they take pictures of the planet and send them back to NASA

NASA scientists use drones to collect data and samples from outer space and from other planets.
