      Hi bobcraft,

      Unfortunately not, I think that would be amazing! NASA has sent several probes to planets all around the solar system, the last gave us cool images of Pluto! (which is now too small to be a planet apparently). These probes analyse the air and the soil and give us a lot of information about how the planets are formed. (I think the Mars ones are the best coolest looking robots, btw)
