Machines have landed on Mars, driven across it for years beyond their planned lifetimes, flown past every major planet, touched a comet, sampled an asteroid and returned the material to Earth, and left the solar system entirely while still reporting back. They do not need air, food, or a return trip, which makes them extraordinarily efficient explorers.
