Starting as early as 1958, Earth-bound scientists have sent probes to study other planets. Fly-bys were first, with all of the Pioneer probes, as well as both Voyagers and most of the Mariner series. In 1966, Luna 9 became the first probe to soft-land on another body, specifically the Moon. In 1971, Mariner 9 became the first probe to orbit another planet. At this point, all the major planets as well as several comets and asteroids have been visited by spacecraft in some form.

They use the rovers on Mars. Try looking into that. CNN always has info on it.
