Difference between List of Solar System probes and Planet

List of Solar System probes vs. Planet

This is a list of space probes that have left Earth orbit (or were launched with that intention but failed), organized by their planned destination. A planet is an astronomical body orbiting a star or stellar remnant that is massive enough to be rounded by its own gravity, is not massive enough to cause thermonuclear fusion, and has cleared its neighbouring region of planetesimals.

Asteroid

Asteroids are minor planets, especially those of the inner Solar System.
